A graphical activity monitor for the command line. Written in node.js.
If you haven't already got Node.js, then go get it.
sudo npm install -g vtop
This is pretty simple too.
vtop
It uses Unicode braille characters to draw CPU and Memory charts, helping you visualize spikes. We also group processes with the same name together.
We calculate the CPU percentage as a total of your overall system power. 100% is all cores and HyperThreads maxed out. This is different to how Apple Activity monitor works.
No I like it this way. Feel free to submit a PR with it as a config option though.
Sure, just do:
vtop --theme wizard
This loads the theme file in themes/ with the same name. Make your own and send me a Pull Request :)
You could add this to your aliases if you'd like to use it always.
alias vtop="vtop --theme brew"
Yeah that's on the list :) Feel free to send a pull request though. Check out the sensors/ folder.
MIT – do what you like with it :)
