Hey cool, you have top?

$ top

Where can I get it?

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=procps%2Fprocps-010801-2&grep=top%5C.exe

I really need to install this package, thanks.

Just to fruitlessly stifle the next question from anyone else who has just found out about this package:

No, there is no way to make top or procps display non-cygwin processes.

For everything there's a way. The question is if it's worth the effort.


For example I'm now seriously considering exporting a procfs to native windows, just to play with installable filesystems.

I didn't say it was impossible. It's not even hard. It just doesn't work now.

To improve mount and to get cygwin better talk to colinux.

I don't think we want to add any colinux features to cygwin. Maybe Corinna will disagree but I don't see any reason to add one byte of extra code to cygwin to handle colinux.

thanks. block devices have been already fixed in cygwin, so there's no need.
colinux was just an example. of course the colinux console has to be enhanced to work better, which could be done by using some cygwin features.


but in the context of mount if would make sense, if it wouldn't slow down startup time too much.
