The GTop module interfaces with the libgtop library. The good news is
that there is a BSD version of libgtop. See
http://home-of-linux.org/gnome/libgtop/platform-bsd.html for details.
Here is some example code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use GTop;
use constant B => 1;
use constant KB => B*1024;
us
Clarification: I'm doing this on OpenBSD. If there is a portable function
that will work across *NIX flavors that is preferable but if not I guess I
need something BSD specific. Thanks.

I think this is going to wind up being machine dependant.
Solaris
Solaris::Procfs -- reads the /proc filesystem
Linux
GTop -- interfaces with libgtop (which reads the /proc filesystem)
windows
Win32::SystemInfo
There are almost certainly others. Most Unix boxen store this info in
the /proc fi
yeah just type : 'free'
