Hi Kaushal Shriyan!
Well, other than that you must use a ctl+c to stop the process (top
continues until stopped) and that the output, being designed to
"refresh" the screen contains a lot of screen control characters I
would say that it does work. The file "expands" every three seconds
(I am using Dapper).
Now, after reading a bit of the top manual ("man top" from a terminal)
I tried "top -b > testtop-b.txt" and this time I tried a "q" to quit
(did not work, needed a ctl+c). When I did stop it I got what I think
you were looking for. Every three seconds (controllable by you so
says the manual) it printed another "screen" full of readable
characters to "testtop-b.txt" which I read with "less testtop-b.txt"
for its control of scrolling.
Have fun!
Tod
