Make the -w option actually useful to people. Instead of it creating a
messy 130 column collage, output the system totals -or- info for a
specific interface if -I is given. Also wait for <interval> before
outputting the first sample so that it represents meaningful data (as
opposed to the total since the system was booted - most busy systems
wrap around many times during their operation, so these numbers are
only misleading).
