htop is an interactive terminal-based system monitor commonly used on Gentoo Linux and other Linux systems.
It provides a real-time view of:
- CPU usage per core

- Running processes
- Process trees
- Load averages
- Uptime
- Process priority (nice values)
- Killing/restarting processes interactively
Compared to traditional top, htop adds:
- Colorized display
- Mouse support
- Scrollable process list
- Easier sorting/filtering
- Tree view
- Function-key shortcuts
