I) This is an example of default output 'flowtop -d':

PROCESS       PID     PROTO  STATE       TIME ADDRESS                           
                 PORT     GEO      BYTES       RATE

II) This is an example of output 'flowtop -ds', each flow entry
separated with additional empty line to easy separate src & dst:


PROCESS       PID     PROTO  STATE       TIME ADDRESS                           
                 PORT     GEO      BYTES       RATE

What do you think ?

I hope the message will be not broken in mutt.
