FreeBSD Port: htop-1.0.3

[Antonio Arredondo]

Dear Maintainer,

I just wanted to let you know that the output for htop (after
installation) is out of order:


Message for htop-1.0.3:
***********************************************************
htop(1) requires linprocfs(5) to be mounted. If you don't
have it mounted already, please add this line to /etc/fstab
and run `mkdir -p /usr/compat/linux/proc; ln -s /usr/compat /compat; mount
linproc`:
linproc /compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw,late 0 0
***********************************************************


should be


Message for htop-1.0.3:
***********************************************************
htop(1) requires linprocfs(5) to be mounted. If you don't
have it mounted already, please add this line to /etc/fstab

linproc /compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw,late 0 0

and run `mkdir -p /usr/compat/linux/proc; ln -s /usr/compat /compat; mount
linproc`:
***********************************************************

The last line should be before the mkdir commands, to prevent users from
incorrectly adding the "mkdir ..." commands to /etc/rc.conf


I installed htop using 'pkg install htop-1.0.3'.


Output of 'pkg info htop-1.0.3':

Description    :
htop is an enhanced version of top, the interactive process viewer,
which can display the list of processes in a tree form.

Comparison between 'htop' and 'top'

	* In 'htop' you can scroll the list vertically and horizontally
	to see all processes and full command lines.
	* In 'top' you are subject to a delay for each unassigned
	key you press (especially annoying when multi-key escape
	sequences are triggered by accident).
	* 'htop' starts faster ('top' seems to collect data for a while
	before displaying anything).
	* In 'htop' you don't need to type the process number to
	kill a process, in 'top' you do.
	* In 'htop' you don't need to type the process number or
	the priority value to renice a process, in 'top' you do.
	* In 'htop' you can kill multiple processes at once.
	* 'top' is older, hence, more tested.
