"top" behaves differently between the VAX and RT. On the RT, it will
show command line arguments, assuming "top" can get them (if it can't,
it displays the the command without arguments in parentheses). On the
VAX, it only shows the command without the arguments.
This problem stems from the fact that the code for /usr/athena/top
differs between the VAX and RT. I made "top" for the RT for 6.0R but
never had the chance to go back and check that the code that I made on
the RT will also work on the VAX. Now, I have tested it and have
further modified it so that it works on both platforms. In addition,
the code now behaves the same on both the VAX and RT (as you might well
imagine would happen when the same code is used).
New sources are in /afs/testers/src/top.
