It bothers me because ps shows swapper task on offline cpu and other active tasks are in the same style. What I want is to show it is different. I wish to distinguish the swapper task on offline cpu directly without having to check which cpu is offline firstly. I would like omitting ">" of idle task on offline cpu and adding "[OFFLINE]" at the end of the line when "offline" set to "hide". And maybe you would like adding "[OFFLINE]" at the end of those sleeping tasks of offline cpu as well.
