I'd still appreciate the feature myself. sysutils/pftop has a pager, granted it's a bit more important there, but sometimes (especially on 80x25 consoles with your colo's airco breathing down your neck) it's convenient. You can work around it, by dumping output to file and loading that in your favorite editor. -- Mel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
