This is htop
, an interactive process viewer.
It requires ncurses
. It is developed primarily on Linux,
but we also have code for running under FreeBSD and Mac OS X
(help and testing are wanted for these platforms!)
This software has evolved considerably over the years, and is reasonably complete, but there is always room for improvement.
- In
htop
you can scroll the list vertically and horizontally to see all processes and full command lines. - In
top
you are subject to a delay for each unassigned key you press (especially annoying when multi-key escape sequences are triggered by accident). htop
starts faster (top
seems to collect data for a while before displaying anything).- In
htop
you don't need to type the process number to kill a process, intop
you do. - In
htop
you don't need to type the process number or the priority value to renice a process, intop
you do. - In
htop
you can kill multiple processes at once. top
is older, hence, more tested.
This program is distributed as a standard autotools-based package. See the INSTALL file for detailed instructions.
When compiling from a release tarball, run:
./configure && make
For compiling sources downloaded from the Git repository, run:
./autogen.sh && ./configure && make
By default make install
will install into /usr/local
, for changing
the path use ./configure --prefix=/some/path
.
See the manual page (man htop
) or the on-line help ('F1' or 'h'
inside htop
) for a list of supported key commands.
If not all keys work check your curses configuration.
