From 70efcb00b405fdac4443f86e3b05721c54fc1f21 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Pospisil Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2015 18:54:52 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Improvement of docker top Man Page Some users expect that the `docker top $CONT` command displays information from the inside container perspective. They expect that the `docker top $CONT` command displays same information as the `docker exec $CONT ps -ef` command. But it does not. That's why the `docker top` man page shall explicitly state that the `docker top $CONT` displays information from the host's point of view.
