Quick question: which package has top-cmd in it?

Re: top-cmd

Huh.  Pacman says that package is already installed.  Running pacman -Ql procps says that it doesn't have a top-cmd, just top and slabtop.  Did top-cmd get renamed or moved to a different package?

Re: top-cmd

It's a command that was mentioned in this thread.  Apparently, it is used to show how much system resources that running programs are using, like top or xrestop.  I wanted to try it out to see if it offered something different from top or xrestop.

Re: top-cmd

Thanks.  I'm guessing that top-cmd got renamed to top.

Re: top-cmd

There's a nicer version of top: htop.
