Re: Please suggest a Mac program similar to "top" on Linux
Brilliant! I had tried top -L and that didn't seem to do anything useful. This is what I was looking for. Call off the hounds! BTW, if you haven't explored the full power of top, you really should play with it and read the documentation. It's so much more than a process viewer.

The top program on Linux is interactive and extremely useful. I find the one on the Mac to be quiet painful to use in comparison.
Try top -L -X I cannot reply to the ml due to smtp server problems.

I worked with the author of top (as he is credited on the FreeBSD port) for a while and I didn't think he had left anything out: glad you found time to Read The Fine Manual. -- Paul Beard / www.paulbeard.org/ <paulbeard@gmail.com/paulbeard@mac.com>

Is there a way to hide idle processes ? Didn't find a command-line switch in the manual, and the "i" key didn't do anything either. (like it does in the GNU procps version...) --anders

Not quite - the manual was no help with this. We needed Andrea's help with this, as it is not obvious that the -X option is needed for interactivity. Perhaps there has been some regression in the Tiger version of top? Is there a bugzilla on macosforge or apple.com where we can post this as an issue? Best, David
