Don't shoot me, but the default for

.Fl I

has changed once again.

So many people were confused by the fact that

.Nm

wasn't showing them all the processes that I have decided to make the

default behavior show idle processes, just like it did in version 2.

But to appease folks who can't stand that behavior, I have added the

ability to set

.Li default

options in the environment variable

.Ev TOP

(see the

.Sx OPTIONS

section).

Those who want the behavior that version 3.0 had need only set

the environment variable

.Ev TOP

.Li -I .

.Pp

The command name for swapped processes should be tracked down, but this

would make the program run slower.
