DESCRIPTION

13       The flow-rptfmt utility processes the CSV output  of  flow-report  into
14       formatted  ASCII or HTML. Sorting, maximum display lines, field filter,
15       header display, and name substitution are supported  during  post  pro‐
16       cessing.  Additionally  an  alarm  can be set for use in CGI scripts to
17       limit the CPU time of formatting.

BUGS

53       Sorting could be faster. Percent totals could be faster. May  not  work
54       with flow-report prior to 0.68.
