Manipulating TOP

I need the command top to output as:
Code:
Memory: 2048M real, 1499M free, 53M swap in use, 5423M swap free

on just the memory line.

Instead, I have compiled the new version of top that displays as so:
Code:
Memory: 2048M phys mem, 1499M free mem, 5476 total swap, 5423M swap free


I read through the man file, I didn't see to much customization options in it.

Any thoughts?

write a script that uses "sed" to make the needed changes on your output...
