ABOUT

 pgtop is a PostgreSQL clone for `mytop', which in turn, is a `top' clone for MySQL

 pgtop is a console-based (non-gui) tool for monitoring the threads
 and overall performance of PostgreSQL 7.2+. It
 runs on most Unix systems which have Perl, DBI, and Term::ReadKey
 installed. And with Term::ANSIColor installed you even get color.

 For more detailed information, look at the `mytop' page on sourceforge.net:
 http://mytop.sourceforge.net/

WARNING

 pgtop is a quick & dirty hack over `mytop', and not all MySQL concepts map very
 well on PostgreSQL architecture and statistics collector. So don't expect a
 good quality out of this little hack...

 And, you should probably look for `ptop'.

INSTALLATION

 tar -zxvf pgtop-<version>.tar.gz
 cd pgtop-<version>
 perl Makefile.PL
 make
 make test
 make install

 There's no test, actually.

 man pgtop
 perldoc pgtop
