>Description:
The parameter "-1" used to TURN ON multi core display (tested on 6.99.4). Now, in RC2, it is the other way round: Default display is multi core, with "-1" it switches to unified display in one line. This makes sense I believe. But the man page is wrong then:

-1, --percpustates
              Display per-cpu states on a multi-processor machine.

It in fact TURNS IT OFF now, not on.
>How-To-Repeat:
call top
call top -1
