SUMMARY Area Fields

The summary area fields describing CPU statistics are abbreviated.

field1	说明
us	user mode
sy	system mode
ni	low priority user mode (nice)
id	idle task
wa	I/O waiting

交互命令

The commands shown with an asterisk (’*’) are not available in ’Secure mode’, nor will they be shown on the level-1 help screen.

GLOBAL Commands

命令	含义	说明
or	刷新显示	##
´?´ or ´h´	显示命令帮助信息	##
´=´	Exit Task Limits	Removes restrictions on which tasks are shown. This command will reverse any ’i’ (idle tasks) and ’n’ (max tasks) commands that might be active. It also provides for an ’exit’ from PID monitoring. See the ’-p’ command-line option for a discussion of PID monitoring. When operating in alternate-display mode this command has a slightly broader meaning.
´A´	Alternate Display Mode toggle	This command will switch between full-screen mode and alternate-display mode. See topic 4. ALTERNATE-DISPLAY Mode and the ’G’ interactive command for insight into ´current’ windows and field groups.
´B´	Bold Disable/Enable toggle	This command will influence use of the ’bold’ terminfo capability and alters both the summary area and task area for the ´current’ window. While it is intended primarily for use with dumb terminals, it can be applied anytime.
* ´d´ or ´s´	Change Delay Time interval	You will be prompted to enter the delay time, in seconds, between display updates. Fractional seconds are honored, but a negative number is not allowed. Entering 0 causes (nearly) continuous updates, with an unsatisfactory display as the system and tty driver try to keep up with top’s demands. The delay value is inversely proportional to system loading, so set it with care. If at any time you wish to know the current delay time, simply ask for help and view the system summary on the second line.
´G´	Choose Another Window/Field Group	You will be prompted to enter a number between 1 and 4 designating the window/field group which should be made the ´current’ window. You will soon grow comfortable with these 4 windows, especially after experimenting with alternate-display mode.
´I´	Irix/Solaris Mode toggle	When operating in ’Solaris mode’ (’I’ toggled Off), a task’s cpu usage will be divided by the total number of CPUs. After issuing this command, you’ll be informed of the new state of this toggle.
´u´	select a user	You will be prompted for a UID or username. Only processes belonging to the selected user will be displayed. This option matches on the effective UID.
´U´	select a user	You will be prompted for a UID or username. Only processes belonging to the selected user will be displayed. This option matches on the real, effective, saved, and filesystem UID.
* ´k´	Kill a task	You will be prompted for a PID and then the signal to send. The default signal, as reflected in the prompt, is SIGTERM. However, you can send any signal, via number or name. If you wish to abort the kill process, do one of the following depending on your progress: 1) at the pid prompt, just press 2) at the signal prompt, type 0
´q´	Quit	##
* ´r´	Renice a Task	You will be prompted for a PID and then the value to nice it to. Entering a positive value will cause a process to lose priority. Conversely, a negative value will cause a process to be viewed more favorably by the kernel.
´W´	Write the Configuration File	This will save all of your options and toggles plus the current display mode and delay time. By issuing this command just before quitting top, you will be able restart later in exactly that same state.
´Z´	Change Color Mapping	This key will take you to a separate screen where you can change the colors for the ´current’ window, or for all windows. For details regarding this interactive command see topic 3d. COLOR Mapping.

SUMMARY Area Commands

The summary area interactive commands are always available in both full-screen mode and alternate-display mode. They affect the beginning lines of your display and will determine the position of messages and prompts.

命令	含义	说明
´l´	Toggle Load Average/Uptime -- On/Off	This is also the line containing the program name (possibly an alias) when operating in full-screen mode or the ´current’ window name when operating in alternate-display mode.
´m´	Toggle Memory/Swap Usage -- On/Off	This command affects two summary area lines.
´t´	Toggle Task/Cpu States -- On/Off	This command affects from 2 to many summary area lines, depending on the state of the ’1’ toggle and whether or not top is running under true SMP.
´1´	Toggle Single/Separate Cpu States -- On/Off	This command affects how the ’t’ command’s Cpu States portion is shown. Although this toggle exists primarily to serve massively-parallel SMP machines, it is not restricted to solely SMP environments.

TASK Area Commands

The task area interactive commands are always available in full-screen mode.

The task area interactive commands are never available in alternate-display mode if the ´current’ window’s task display has been toggled Off (see topic 4. ALTERNATE-DISPLAY Mode).

命令	含义	说明
´b´	Bold/Reverse toggle	This command will impact how the ’x’ and ’y’ toggles are displayed. Further, it will only be available when at least one of those toggles is On.
´x´	Column Highlight toggle	Changes highlighting for the current sort field. You probably don’t need a constant visual reminder of the sort field and top hopes that you always run with ’column highlight’ Off, due to the cost in path-length. If you forget which field is being sorted this command can serve as a quick visual reminder.
´y´	Row Highlight toggle	Changes highlighting for "running" tasks. For additional insight into this task state, see topic 2a. DESCRIPTIONS of Fields, Process Status. Use of this provision provides important insight into your system’s health. The only costs will be a few additional tty escape sequences.
´z´	Color/Monochrome toggle	Switches the ´current’ window between your last used color scheme and the older form of black-on-white or white-on-black. This command will alter both the summary area and task area but does not affect the state of the ’x’, ’y’ or ’b’ toggles.
´c´	Command Line/Program Name toggle	This command will be honored whether or not the ’Command’ column is currently visible. Later, should that field come into view, the change you applied will be seen.
´f´ and ´o´	Fields select or Order fields	These keys display separate screens where you can change which fields are displayed and their order. For additional information on these interactive commands see topic 2b. SELECTING and ORDERING Columns.
´H´	Threads toggle	When this toggle is On, all individual threads will be displayed. Otherwise, top displays a summation of all threads in a process.
´S´	Cumulative Time Mode toggle	When ’Cumulative mode’ is On, each process is listed with the cpu time that it and its dead children have used. When Off, programs that fork into many separate tasks will appear less demanding. For programs like ’init’ or a shell this is appropriate but for others, like compilers, perhaps not. Experiment with two task windows sharing the same sort field but with different ’S’ states and see which representation you prefer. After issuing this command, you’ll be informed of the new state of this toggle. If you wish to know in advance whether or not ’Cumulative mode’ is in effect, simply ask for help and view the window summary on the second line.
´u´	Show Specific User Only	You will be prompted to enter the name of the user to display. Thereafter, in that task window only matching User ID’s will be shown, or possibly no tasks will be shown. Later, if you wish to monitor all tasks again, reissue this command but just press at the prompt, without providing a name.
´i´	Idle Processes toggle	Displays all tasks or just active tasks. When this toggle is Off, idled or zombied processes will not be displayed. If this command is applied to the last task display when in alternate-display mode, then it will not affect the window’s size, as all prior task displays will have already been painted.
´n´ or ´#´	Set Maximum Tasks	You will be prompted to enter the number of tasks to display. The lessor of your number and available screen rows will be used.
´<´	Move Sort Field Left	Moves the sort column to the left unless the current sort field is the first field being displayed.
´>´	Move Sort Field Right	Moves the sort column to the right unless the current sort field is the last field being displayed.
´F´ or ´O´	Select Sort Field	These keys display a separate screen where you can change which field is used as the sort column. If a field is selected which was not previously being displayed, it will be forced On when you return to the top display. However, depending upon your screen width and the order of your fields, this sort field may not be displayable.
´R´	Reverse/Normal Sort Field toggle	Using this interactive command you can alternate between high-to-low and low-to-high sorts.
