• Real-Time Monitoring: Track VPN connection status, latency, and tunnel uptime dynamically.
• Interactive Controls:
  • [R] Reconnect
  • [D] Disconnect
  • [Q] Quit
• Latency Visualization: Displays latency trends in a bar graph format for quick insights.
• Minimal Dependencies: Runs using Curses and OpenVPN, keeping the setup lightweight.
• Future Proxy Support: Proxy chains functionality will be added in future updates.
