3# Top is very sensitive to differences in the kernel, so much so that an
4# executable created on one sub-architecture may not work on others.  It
5# is also quite common for a minor OS revision to require recompilation of
6# top.  Both of these problems are especially prevalent on Suns.  For
7# example, a top executable made under SunOS 4.1.1 will not run correctly
8# under SunOS 4.1.2, and vice versa.  "metatop" attempts to solve this
9# problem by choosing one of several possible top executables to run then
10# executing it.
11#
12# To use metatop your operating system needs to have the command "uname"
13# as part of the standard OS release.  MAKE SURE IT DOES before proceeding.
14# It will try to execute the command "top-`uname -m`-`uname -r`"  For 
15# example, on a sparcstation 1 running SunOS 4.1.1, it will try to run
16# "top-sun4c-4.1.1".
17#
18# INSTALLATION is easy.  Just compile top as normal.  Then use the command
19# "make metainstall" (on the same machine!) instead of the usual.  "make"
20# will insure that this shell script is installed correctly then will install
21# the most recently made top executable with the correct name.  Remember:
22# you will need to "make clean" and "make metainstall" on every different
23# combination of sub-architecture and OS version that you have.
