Yah, someone at y! asked for it, so I did it in a local utility, then figured with enough hackery I could move it into the base top(1). Only problem is that I'm having a hell of a time figuring out how and where to display the IO totals. I also wish that inblocks/oublocks were actually set to a specific unit. As it stands I think it's just some number of "blocks" no specific size though, so I can't convert it into an actual xfer speed. -- - Alfred Perlstein - Research Engineering Development Inc. - email: bright@mu.org cell: 408-480-4684
