B is listed as an interactive command to toggle the display of threads.
This is a typo introduced during the conversion of the manual page to
mdoc.

In r334906, the -s option was changed to allow fractional times, but
this only functioned correctly for batch mode. In interactive mode, any
delay below 1.0 would get floored to zero. This would put top(1) into a
tight loop, which could be difficult to interrupt.
Fix this by storing the -s option value (after validation) into a struct
timeval, and using that struct consistently for delaying with select(2).
Next up is to allow interactive entry of a fractional delay value.

The description talks about 'number', while the final argument was
'count'. Since 'count' is already used for the count of displays,
change the final argument name to 'number'.

Due to markup issues, the DESCRIPTION OF MEMORY section is rather
unreadable; rework it a bit, using subsections for different lines of the
top output, and move it closer to description.
While here, pet manlint ordering other sections as expected.

- By popular demand, implement a different switch ("T") for toggling
between thread id and process id.
- Add an assert that the size of command chars is as expected.
- Also clean up some messiness I found when implementing this.
- Further document the new flag.

Allow to show only a single process specified by PID. This could
be done either by running top like 'top -p PID' or using the 'p' command
inside top.

Some users prefer seeing the TID when viewing individual threads. This
makes sense as the PID will be the same for multiple entries. An attempt
was made to include both, but there is insufficient room. As such, using
the TID.
While here, rename the header variables to be more understandable.

We've been maintaining top(1) for a long time, and the upstream
hasn't existed/been used in similarly as long. Make it clear that we own
top(1)
Tested with 'make universe'. Everything passed except MIPS which failed
for unrelated reasons. Install also tested for amd64.
