I've read the info page, but I can't find any way to scroll the list in top.

Maybe there is no way to scroll?... but there must, at least, be some way to filter the list, and I can't find that either.

How do I display line-entries which are off the page?

I have only one suggestion: use htop Install htop instead.

Maybe it's called top for that very reason.. it may be by design that it only shows the top entries... (just guessing, but if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it probably is a duck ;) ... It is very cabable at sorting by columns and add/remove collumns via a single key – Peter.O Oct 31 '10 at 3:39
There are some filters possible in top BTW, like filtering on user, process ID, &c., but htop has so many more possibilities, plus a UI that's easy to change from inside the program... – JanC Oct 31 '10 at 3:54
It's great... I'm a htop convert :) – Peter.O Oct 31 '10 at 9:30
