I just switched over to snapshots (from 7.8-stable) to take advantage of
the vmd virtio updates, and then noticed that ttyplot looks to be limited
by pledge.

When I invoke "vmstat 1 | awk 'NR>2 { print 100-$(NF); fflush(); }' |
ttyplot -t "Cpu usage" -s 100"
I get a "waiting for data from stdinttyplot[23086]: pledge "rpath", syscall
5" and then Abort trap (core dump).

I assume the dump may not interest you - as either I am doing something
wrong, or I somehow need to convince pledge/unveil to allow me do my
ttyplot invocation.

I wanted to let you know, as ttyplot may not be high on the list of
packages needing attention.

Thank you for your time.



Kind regards,
Chris
