>Description:

	When top is used with a very narrow terminal (less than 80
	columns), the first block of information, including process
	info, memory and swap information, etc. is printed without a
	check for the terminal width.

	This results in quite messed up output.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Run top in an xterm and resize it to 60-70 columns.
>Fix:

	Not sure yet.
