I am trying to port top to mach.  Top is a program that shows the top processes
running in real time.  It currently only works on suns and a couple of others.
I am having trouble because mach doesnt support alot of the structures suns do.
For example look in /usr/include/sys/proc.h, most of the fields in proc are 
missing on Nexts.  What do I do?  Does anybody know of mach programming
documentation?  I really need something because I really need top.  Anybody got
any ideas?  Like how does ps figure out % cpu usage if its not in kmem?
Does anybody know of any good kmem docs?  mach or bsd would be nice.
						Thanx!!!
