-f show fixed number of lines with system statistics
-F suppress sorting of system resources
-G suppress exited processes in output
-l show limited number of lines for certain resources
-y show individual threads
-1 show average-per-second i.s.o. total values
-x no colors in case of high occupation
-g show general process-info (default)
-m show memory-related process-info
-d show disk-related process-info
-n show network-related process-info
-s show scheduling-related process-info
-v show various process-info (ppid, user/group, date/time)
-c show command line per process
-o show own defined process-info
-u show cumulated process-info per user
-p show cumulated process-info per program (i.e. same name)
-C sort processes in order of cpu-consumption (default)
-M sort processes in order of memory-consumption
-D sort processes in order of disk-activity

specific flags for raw logfiles:
-w write raw data to file (compressed)
-r read raw data from file (compressed)

-S finish atop automatically before midnight (i.s.o. #samples)
-b begin showing data from specified time
-e finish showing data after specified time
interval: number of seconds (minimum 0)
samples: number of intervals (minimum 1)
If the interval-value is zero, a new sample can be
forced manually by sending signal USR1 (kill -USR1 pid_atop)
or with the keystroke 't' in interactive mode.
Please refer to the man-page of 'atop' for more details.
