in thread Percent of CPU/Mem Usage for User

On second look Proc table MAY be usable...but I'll have to do some more research. :) Thank you.

Edit: First look was too brief, made it look like less than it was. Looking into it further it seems almost too basic. Fully usable, but will have to experiment when my brain isn't all over the place. :) Thank you again.

    If you post something like 
    #!/usr/bin/perl -T --
use strict;
use warnings;
use IPC::System::Simple qw' capturex ';

Main( 'theuser' );
exit( 0 );

sub Main {
    my( $username ) = @_;
#~     my $top = `top -b -n 1 -u $username`;
## Capture text while invoking the shell.
#~     my $top = capturex( qw' top -b -n 1 -u ', $username );
    my $output = <<'__TOP_EXAMPLE__';
here is something top will output
it goes like this
__TOP_EXAMPLE__

    if( $output=~ /.../ ){ # my regex
        print "$1$2...\n";
    }

}

    then I can help with the regex ... more tips like this at How (Not) To Ask A Question, I know what I mean. Why don't you?, courtesy of PerlMonks FAQ, Tutorials
