# NTop
[](https://github.com/Nuke928/NTop/releases/latest)
[](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0)
htop-like system-monitor with Vi-emulation for Windows. Because using Task Manager is not cool enough.
NTop as in Windows NT-op or NukeTop. Whatever you prefer (the latter obviously).

### Chocolatey
```sh
$ choco install ntop.portable
```
### Scoop
```sh
$ scoop install ntop
```

```sh
$ winget install gsass1.NTop
```

```
## TODO
* ~~Figure out buggy resizing.~~
* ~~View process tree.~~
* ~~Searching.~~
* Filtering.
* All of htop's command line options.
* At least the most important interactive commands (e.g. ~~following processes~~).
