Removal of "options" and "HELP MENU" sections
[edit]I removed these two sections, as they appear to be simple copy-pastes from the man page and the interactive help, and Wikipedia is not a guide or an indiscriminate collection of information. The article should be about what iftop is, not how to use it – that's what the man pages are for. anowlcalledjosh 🦉 (talk) 11:18, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
- I also made some similar changes in the same spirit you described. I parred it down to just one feature description that I felt represented the unique aspect of this utility, at least at the time of it's creation. The rest was mostly just instructive fluff like you said. I think the article in it's current form is appropriate for preserving the history of the utility. LiamJSP (talk) 20:43, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
