Hi,
When I do a man and save it into a file, I end up getting a lot of control characters. How can I remove them??
I tried this:
/1,$ s/^H//g
But I get an error saying "no previous regular expression".
Can someone help me with this.
Thanks,

xrestop
xrestop(1) General Commands Manual xrestop(1)NAME
xrestop - monitor server resources used by X11 clients
SYNOPSIS
xrestop -help
xrestop [ -display display ] [ --batch ] [ --delay-time seconds ]
DESCRIPTION
Xrestop uses the X-Resource extension to provide 'top'-like statistics of each connected X11 client's server-side resource usage. It is
intended as a developer tool to aid more efficient server resource usage and debug server-side resource leakage.
OPTIONS --help Show usage.
--display, -d <display>
Specify X11 display to monitor.
--delay-time, -dt <seconds>
Time in seconds between taking samples. Default is 2 seconds.
--batch, -b
Run in batch mode. Slightly more detailed infomation is streamed to stdout rather than the usual curses interface. This mode is
intended for debugging a single client with something like
xrestop -b | grep -A 15 appname
--max-samples, -m <count>
Specify number of times to gather and display results. Default is continuous, which can be set with 0 (zero).
SEE ALSO X(7), top(1).
BUGS
The X-Resource extension is very new and may not be 100% accurate.
