## Installation

[➡️ Download the latest release.](https://github.com/chrisgrieser/alfred-atop/releases/latest)

## Usage

List all available tools via `atop` and select one. Alternatively, you can also

directly access the more frequently used tools via a configurable keyword.



### Process Management



Display processes directly via `top`. Append "parent" to the query to display

only processes that have child processes.

- ⏎: Kill the process.

- ⌘⏎: Force-kill the process.

- ⌃⏎: Kill all processes with the same name.

- ⌘⌃⏎: Force-kill all processes with the same

  name.

- ⇧⏎: If the process belongs to a regular app, restart the

  app.

- ⌥⏎: Copy the Process Identifier (PID).

**Meaning of the icons**

- `⭕`: process is owned by root.

- `n⇣`: process is a parent of `n` child processes.

- `↖ foobar`: process is a child of `foobar`.

### Bluetooth Devices



Display paired Bluetooth devices directly via `blue`.

- ⏎: If `blueutil` is installed, toggle the connection state.

  Otherwise, open the Bluetooth preferences.

- ⌥⏎: Copy the device address.

### Removable Volumes



Display mounted volumes directly via `vol`.

- ⏎: Open the Volume in Finder.

- ⌘⏎: Browse the Volume in the Terminal, [using the

  Terminal app you have configured in your Alfred

  preferences](https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/terminal/).  

- ⌃⏎: Eject the Volume.

### DNS Switching



## About the developer

In my day job, I am a sociologist studying the social mechanisms underlying the

digital economy. For my PhD project, I investigate the governance of the app

economy and how software ecosystems manage the tension between innovation and

compatibility. If you are interested in this subject, feel free to get in touch.
