This week I finally released htop 2.0.0!

  • htop-2.0.0.tar.gz
  • MD5 06f76c7d644ce8ae611c9feb10439a30
  • SHA-256 d15ca2a0abd6d91d6d17fd685043929cfe7aa91199a9f4b3ebbb370a2c2424b5

What’s new in htop 2.0

Since version 2.0, htop is now cross-platform!
Check out the video and slides of my presentation at FOSDEM 2016
about how this came to be. This release includes code supporting Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Mac OS X.

There are also, of course, some new features:

  • If you’re using NCurses 6, htop will also support your mouse wheel for scrolling.
  • Moving meters and columns around in the setup screen is a lot more comfortable now.
  • You can now press “e” to see the set of environment variables for a process.
  • The “graph” mode for meters was revamped, inspired by James Hall’s vtop.

…And of course, lots of other tweaks and fixes!
