I've cc'd my reply to the toybox mailing list, but removed the identifying info from the submitter rather than do the "can I post this" round trip. (They can reply publicly if they like.)

During normal operation you can override the secreen size detection via the environment variable $LINES, ala: LINES=10 top But that doesn't affect -b mode... > But this '-m' option is not supported yet in toybox code. My assumption was if you're using "top -bn1" you'd pipe it through "head -n ##", to trim the output, but I suppose I can see it being useful for multiple -b output iterations... > So could you please let me know the source code changes > that are need to be done in top_common() function > present in toybox/toys/posix/ps.c file.? I.E. this is a feature request to add -m to top? :) Hey Elliott, given this was an android addition to begin with, what do you think? (It's easy enough to add...) Rob P.S. Poking at this, top and iotop have a common option block but -H and -O weren't applied to iotop so either they should be or the options should be moved to the earlier quoted string in the NEWTOY macro to mark them as not common... And -O differs because iotop uses it to mean something else. But maybe -H can be shared... _______________________________________________ Toybox mailing list Toybox@lists.landley.net http://lists.landley.net/listinfo.cgi/toybox-landley.net
