Bashtop is a resource monitor written primarily in Bash with some Python support, displaying real-time usage of system resources: CPU, memory, disks, network, and processes. It provides an interactive, visually pleasant UI in the terminal (graphs, colors, etc.), process list filtering, sorting, and controls to send signals to processes. Bashtop supports themes, configurable update intervals, and has optional dependencies to augment its functionality (e.g. for temperature, extended stats). It is designed for Unix-like systems. Ability to signal processes (SIGTERM, SIGKILL, SIGINT) from within its interface. Optional features like temperature monitoring if supported sensors/tools are installed, and support for alternate data collection methods (e.g. psutil for macOS/FreeBSD).
