Top program for Ultrix machines

A couple of weeks ago there was a brief discussion here concerning top, a
program which shows CPU usage interactively (shows constantly updated screen of
top n cpu users). The main discussion was that it seemed to have broken under
Ultrix 4.x (as several kernel variables changed at that time).
I have since received an updated version of top from Robert Evans at the
University of Wales. I was able to compile and go with only minor
customization of the Makefile. Here is his README file:
> Robert Evans, Dept of Computing Maths.
> University of Wales College of Cardiff
> robert at cm.cf.ac.uk
>
> Amended to
> 1) use ultrix window sizing
> 2) display each processor separately
> 3) some fixes to type casting in cpu calculations and
> references to include files.
> 4) Makefile localised.
>
> Tested on
> 1) VAX 8350 running Ultrix 4.0
> 2) RISC/VAX 5830 running Ultrix 4.0
> 3) MicroVax II running Ultrix 3.0
> 4) Sun SPARCServer 330 running SunOS 4.1
> 5) Sun SPARCIPC running SunOS 4.1
> 6) Sun 3/{160,150,60,50,80} running SunOS 4.1
and I can now add:
7) Microvax 3100 running Ultrix 4.1
I can't speak for Robert's willingness to uucp this stuff to anybody, but
I can probably do that for a reasonable number of requests. Ftp should be
available from Robert, but you'll have to ask him. He kindly granted me
permission to post this.
