+ATOP is an advanced interactive monitor for Linux-systems
+to view the load on system-level and process-level.
+
+Some features depend on the 'acct' (BSD accounting) package from
+Slackware being installed. To enable it, execute the following:
+ touch /var/log/pacct
+ chgrp utmp /var/log/pacct
+ chmod 640 /var/log/pacct
+ accton
+
+You may want to have atop start at boot; to do so, added the
+following lines to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+ # Start the accounting top service
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.atop ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.atop
+ fi
