Hi,
I liked this idea better, so I settled with this:
# Status Bar Info
status() {
echo -n $(acpi) '|' $(ps -eo pcpu,ucmd --sort -pcpu | sed -n
2,4p | awk '$1 > 10 {print $1 " (" $2 ")"}') '|' $(uptime | sed
's/.*://; s/,//g') '|' $(date)
}
I'm showing the first 3 processes if they happen to be using more than 10%.
Thanks to all who contributed to this discussion.
Jesus.
