how to format ssh top output
Hello;

Am trying to generate runaway proc report using ssh thusly:

===================
Code:
ssh -t -t $BOX 'TERMINAL="vt100" top -d1 -h -n 10' >> $FILE
.
.
cat $FILE | mail -s "Latest Top `date`" $MAIL_TO

====================

But the output to e-mail comes out rather garbled ..
Any ideas on how to format it properly ??

Thank you

not sure which method you used to solve the issue.

But, you can use top -b which says batch method and redirection gives proper readable output.
