+Subject: [PATCH] top: fix a fix for the 'bye_bye' function (merge #127)
+
+In the merge request shown below, 1 too many bytes are
+written to stdout thus including the terminating null.
+As the cure, this commit just reduces the length by 1.
+
+[ along the way, we will remove some unneeded braces ]
+[ plus add some additional comments with attribution ]
