[#SHAZBOTAA7235423352662A] X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2007 22:02:23 -0000 I've red the manpage for "top" (from heh heh "top" to bottom...), and I am amazed that there is not a feature to hit '/' or '?' in order to search and display only processes which match a certain keyword/search term. For example, a user running top could hit '/' and enter "fire", which would display processes related to "firefox." What is the best way to get (such) a feature added to "top?!" I know I know, I'm always causing mayhem. *grin* -- Peter aka SweetPete! La Jolla San Diego, CA, 92039, USA, EARTH
