Hey Hay, I'm sorry I didn't get back to this - I didn't catch your reply til just this morning (I'm in and out quite a bit). I don't know if you got your answer or not, but yes, it does show all the processes that will fit on my root window. At first the default was only showing my own processes, but I played with the geometry settings and I got the same information spread out the way you did, then I stopped it and restarted it and it fixed itself. I created the fifo as instructed, then I put together this little diddy and stuck it in $HOME/bin. Call it whatever you want. #!/bin/bash top -b >> .top-output & root-tail -g 155x47+50+50 -f -color rgb:00/aa/ff .top-output It seems to do the trick for me. My laptop res is 1024x768. Again, sorry for the delayed reponse.
