OK,
what about this:
time (procinfo | awk '$1 == "idle" && $2 == ":" { if (sub("%", "", $5)) { print
$5 } else { sub("%", "", $4); print $4} }')
99.4
real 0m0.010s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s
# Maybe use "print int($x)" to see an integer
(I didn't know the details of /proc/stat. Those who want to might read:
/usr/src/linux/kernel/sched.c, /usr/src/linux/include/linux/kernel_stat.h,
/usr/src/linux/include/asm-generic/cputime.h)
