When the beginning of the Mem/Swap graphs was variable scaling them to the current terminal's width was a bit of a costly nightmare. So the graph size was fixed and subject to truncation. However now that the start of a graph can be easily predicted, I've revisited scaling. As it turns out, any cost is minimal & mostly incurred at an opportune time, at SIGWINCH or user interaction. Plus, most of the apparent arithmetic is actually just a means of documenting and will disappear thru compile time constants in the ultimate generated machine code. Note: those graphs will now behave just like any other Summary Area element - they will scale from full sized down to a terminal width of 80 columns, at which point those displayed graphs are then subject to truncation.

COMPATIBILITY
This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and
hopefully all future kernels.

If you are using git version of the project you need extra step.
./autogen.sh
After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can
do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for
your needs.
./configure
make
make install
If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite.
make check
HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
See Documentation/BUGS file.
PACKAGING
If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux
distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section
applies to you.
Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your
patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not
included.
Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and
busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow
Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via
email without need for an account.
For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags
to the CFLAGS variable.
