[procps] procps user poll

[<pro...@li...>]

I have several possible changes that are
really about personal preferances. Please
send me an email with your choices, so
that the next release will be better.

==== Item 1 ====
The top program displays some of the
header in bold by default. Should the
boldness (bright white on the console)
be removed?

==== Item 2 ====
The w program can be compiled to show
the FROM column by default, or to not.
Currently the column is not shown unless
you use the -f switch to toggle it on.
Should the default be changed?

==== Item 3 ====
The tload program might change. First
of all, do people actually use this?
That is, should I discard the program?
Second of all, should it be updated?
There is a proposed change involving
multi-color output. Here is a screenshot:

Good? Bad?

==== Item 4 ====
The top program has a line that starts
off like this:  "Cpu(s):"  Should that
instead be "CPUs:" or CPU:"?

==== Item 5 ====
By default, the top program highlights
rows of processes that are running.
Should this feature:

a. stay the same
b. consider "running" by CPU tick usage
c. count both "R"-state and CPU usage

Should the feature be turned off by default?

==== Item 6 ====
The top program lets you sort by any column.
This is great, until you want to sort by
process start time (age), which isn't displayed.
How should this be solved?

a. hijack sort-by-PID for sort-by-age
b. an off-screen column
c. replace an existing column (which one?)
d. other... suggestions are very welcome

==== Item 7 ====
What should ps do about screen width when
the output is redirected? Consider both
"ps u | less" and "ps u | grep foo".
Current behavior seems to favor scripting,
with lines reaching unlimited length.
Lines could be truncated to 80 characters
(as was once the default) or possibly
according to $TERM setting. The normal
window size info is unavailable in this case.

==== Item 8 ====
Should the w program sort the output?
If so, on which column?

==== Item 9 ====
Does the w program need for ps-style column
selection and/or some new column choices?
What might that be?
