What's new in version 0.8.1 * Linux-VServer support (thanks to Jonathan Sambrook and Benedikt Bohm) What's new in version 0.8 * Ability to change sort column with the mouse by clicking column titles (click again to invert order) * Add support for Linux per-process IO statistics, enabled with the --enable-taskstats flag, which requires a kernel compiled with taskstats support. (thanks to Tobias Oetiker) * Add Unicode support, enabled with the --enable-unicode flag, which requires libncursesw. (thanks to Sergej Pupykin) * BUGFIX: Fix display of CPU count for threaded processes. When user threads are hidden, process now shows the sum of processor usage for all processors. When user threads are displayed, each thread shows its own processor usage, including the root thread. (thanks to Bert Wesarg for the report) * BUGFIX: avoid crashing when using many meters (thanks to David Cho for the report) What's new in version 0.7 * CPU affinity configuration ('a' key) * Improve display of tree view, properly nesting threads of the same app based on TGID. * IO-wait time now counts as idle time, which is a more accurate description. It is still available in split time, now called detailed CPU time. (thanks to Samuel Thibault for the report) * BUGFIX: Correct display of TPGID field * Add TGID field * BUGFIX: Don't crash with invalid command-line flags (thanks to Nico Golde for the report) * Fix GCC 4.3 compilation issues (thanks to Martin Michlmayr for the report) * OpenVZ support, enabled at compile-time with the --enable-openvz flag. (thanks to Sergey Lychko) What's new in version 0.6.6 * Add support of NLWP field (thanks to Bert Wesarg) * BUGFIX: Fix use of configurable /proc location (thanks to Florent Thoumie) * Fix memory percentage calculation and make it saner (thanks to Olev Kartau for the report) * Added display of DRS, DT, LRS and TRS (thanks to Matthias Lederhofer) * BUGFIX: LRS and DRS memory values were flipped (thanks to Matthias Lederhofer) * BUGFIX: Don't crash on very high UIDs (thanks to Egmont Koblinger) What's new in version 0.6.5 * Add hardened-debug flags for debugging with Hardened GCC * BUGFIX: Handle error condition when a directory vanishes from /proc * BUGFIX: Fix leak of process command line * BUGFIX: Collect orphaned items when arranging the tree view. (thanks to Wolfram Schlich for assistance with debugging) * Separate proc and memory debugging into separate #defines. * BUGFIX: Fix message when configure fails due to missing libraries (thanks to Jon) * BUGFIX: Don't truncate value when displaying a very large process (thanks to Bo Liu) What's new in version 0.6.4 * Add an option to split the display of kernel time in the CPU meter into system, IO-wait, IRQ and soft-IRQ. (thanks to Philipp Richter) * --sort-key flag in the command-line, overriding the saved setting in .htoprc for the session. (thanks to Rodolfo Borges) * BUGFIX: Fixed string overflow on uptime display. (thanks to Marc Cahalan) What's new in version 0.6.3 * Performance improvements: uses much less CPU than the previous release with the default setup. * Use 64-bit values when storing processor times to avoid overflow. * Memory consumption improvements, compensating storage of 64-bit values. * Internal change: rename TypedVector to Vector and ListBox (and related classes) to Panel. * Have configure actually fail when needed libraries or headers are not found. * Horizontally scroll in larger increments when on the Linux console because of slow update of unaccelerated fb * No longer untag processes after sending a signal (useful for when SIGTERM fails and one wants to try again with SIGKILL). All processes can be untagged at once with 'U'. (thanks to A. Costa for the suggestion) What's new in version 0.6.2 * BUGFIX: Fixed crash when using some .htoprc files from 0.6 (thanks to Wolfram Schlich and John Thomas for the reports) * BUGFIX: Ensure changes to color scheme are saved * BUGFIX: Make configure behave correctly with --with-proc * Minor addition to .desktop file. What's new in version 0.6.1 * New meter type: "All CPUs", which dynamically adjusts to the number of CPUs present in the machine. Note that because of this, older versions of htop may crash when using an .htoprc file modified my the newer version. * Accept --with-proc= in configure, to specify alternative procfs locations (making htop friendlier to the Linux compatibility layer in FreeBSD) * Included icon .desktop and desktop entry (thanks to Peter Hyman) * Added a check to make sure that a root-user htop closes when its parent non-root terminal is closed. (thanks to Ilya Evseev for the report) * BUGFIX: does not crash anymore when $HOME is not set (thanks to Henning Schild for the report) * Wait for strace child process to die properly. (thanks to Marcus Fritzsch) * Support $HTOPRC (thanks to Luis Limon) What's new in version 0.6 * Configuration of columns merged into the Setup screen * Integrated strace (press 's') (thanks to Marinho Barcellos for the help) * BUGFIX: some fixes, aided by Valgrind (thanks to Wolfram Schlich for the report) * BUGFIX: fixed bug when switching meter modes (thanks to Eduardo Righes for the report) * Show processes of a single user * "SortBy" function now menu-based * Improved mouse handling * ...and on top of that reduced memory consumption! What's new in version 0.5.4 * Color schemes * -d flag, to configure delay between updates. Note that the delay value is saved in ~/.htoprc. * BUGFIX: Update of meters was halting after help screen. (thanks to Matt Moore) * BUGFIX: No longer display incorrect information in first frame. * BUGFIX: Fix auto-detection of /proc/stat, correcting CPU usage information on multiprocessor systems. What's new in version 0.5.3 * Read new field "steal" on newer /proc/stat files * Auto-detects format of /proc/stat, to cope with patched 2.4 kernels which display 2.6-style information (most notably those on RHEL 3) (thanks to Fernando Dotta for the report) * Support $HOME_ETC initiative (see http://www.pld-linux.org/Docs/home-etc) (thanks to Roman Barczynski for the tip) * The configure script now tests for /proc, so that it fails early on unsupported platforms instead of during compilation/execution. * Made presentation of the function keys in the status bar consistent across views (thanks to David Mathog for the report) * Minor changes to make the codebase more friendly to possible future ports (thanks to Jari Aalto and David Mathog for the reports) What's new in version 0.5.2 * BUGFIX: Correct display of user field (thanks to Marcin Miroslaw for the report) * Keyboard support improvements (thanks to Aury Fink Filho for the report) What's new in version 0.5.1 * BUGFIX: Correctly displays NPTL threads from /proc//task subdirectories (thanks to Mike Pot for the report) * BUGFIX: Fixes key handling on Signals listbox (thanks to Ondrej Vlach) * Renicing no longer displays temporary illegal values (thanks to Ondrej Vlach) * 'Hide userland threads' feature for NPTL threads What's new in version 0.5 * Tree view * New column, TIME (user + system time, like in top, 'T' switches to "sort by time") * Major reorganization of the underlying code of the setup screen, to manage setup pages * New setup page: Display options * Hide kernel threads ('K' key) * Colorized memory numbers * Vastly improved support for monochromatic terminals * Shadow processes that do not belong to user ('U' key) * Header margin configuration accessible via setup screen * Visual feedback on failing incremental search * BUGFIX: fixed keyboard input issues on 64-bit machines * BUGFIX: hopefully fixed the incorrect values that show on status bars in some systems * BUGFIX: doesn't mess with fields list anymore when canceling after changing the number of items * Uptime meter no longer says "1 days" ;) What's new in version 0.4.1 * BUGFIX: compiles on 64-bit architectures again (thanks to Bartosz Fenski for the report) * BUGFIX: multi-processor support fixed on kernels 2.6 (thanks to Wolfram Schlich for the report) What's new in version 0.4 * Support for multiple processors!
