Description Jason Rhinelander 2003-08-06 17:39:04 UTC 
top does not work properly when given multiple PID's.  According to both the POD
and behaviour of previous versions, it is supposed to allow you to select
individual processes by using the arguments:

top p 100 p 101 p 102 p 103

-or-

top p 100,101,102,103

but neither work - the only result is:

        top: conflicting process selection

Specifing a _single_ PID works, but multiple PIDs do not.
