> But 10 happens to be default and can be skipped. Everyone knows that, of > course ;) True. I know ... but I wanted to explicitly show up, that's possible to specify the number of processes that will show up. It wasn't considered to be a tutorial of shell programming or good practices, just a hint of how the requested functionality could be achieved, if Busybox ps would honor pcpu/pmem format fields. -- Harald _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
