const helpText = `Usage: gops is a tool to list and diagnose Go processes.

    gops             Lists all Go processes currently running.
    gops cmd <pid>   See the commands below.

Commands:
    stack       Prints the stack trace.
    gc          Runs the garbage collector and blocks until successful.
    memstats    Prints the allocation and garbage collection stats.
    version     Prints the Go version used to build the program.
    stats       Prints the vital runtime stats.
    help        Prints this help text.

Profiling commands:
    trace       Runs the runtime tracer for 5 secs and launches "go tool trace".
    pprof-heap  Reads the heap profile and launches "go tool pprof".
    pprof-cpu   Reads the CPU profile and launches "go tool pprof".


All commands require the agent running on the Go process.
Symbol "*" indicates the process runs the agent.`
