• Easy to use, with a game inspired menu system.
• Fast and responsive UI with UP, DOWN keys process selection.
• Function for showing detailed stats for selected process.
• Ability to filter processes.
• Easy switching between sorting options.
• Send SIGTERM, SIGKILL, SIGINT to selected process.
• UI menu for changing all config file options.
• Auto scaling graph for network usage.

Compability

Should work on most modern linux distributions with a truecolor capable terminal.

Dependencies

bash (v4.4 or later) Script functionality will most probably brake with earlier versions.
Bash version 5 is higly recommended to make use of $EPOCHREALTIME variable instead of alot of external date command calls.
