For what it's worth, I am not porting anything to FreeBSD. The TOP program is already ported, but it has problems with the sys_errlist declaration in its utils.c program, which severly conflicts with the FreeBSD stdio.h declaration. TOP V3.3 has code specific for FreeBSD as well as NetBSD and BSD, and others. Nevertheless, I will get the "handbook" and look for any hints on how to resolve this problem.
