Commands that can operate on multiple processes, +like "kill", will then apply over the list of tagged processes, instead +of the currently highlighted one. +.TP +.B F1, h +Help screen +.TP +.B F2, S +Setup screen. There you can configure meters displayed on the top side +of the screen, as well as setting various display options. +.TP +.B F3, / +Incremental process search: type in part of a process command line and +the selection highlight will be moved to it. While in search mode, +pressing this key will cycle through matching occurrences. +.TP +.B F4, I +Invert sort order: if sort order is increasing, switch to decreasing, +and vice-versa. +.TP +.B F5, t +Tree view: organize processes by parenthood, and layout the relations +between them as a tree. Toggling the key will switch between tree and +your previously selected sort view. Selecting a sort view will exit +tree view. +.TP +.B Shift-F6 (F18), < +Select sorting by previous field.

If processes were tagged, sends the signal to all tagged processes. +If none is tagged, sends to the currently selected process. +.TP +.B F10, q +Quit +.TP +.B M +Sort by memory usage (top compatibility key). +.TP +.B P +Sort by processor usage (top compatibility key). +.TP +.B T +Sort by time (top compatibility key). +.TP +.B C +Select displayed columns. +.TP +.B F +"Follow" process: if the sort order causes the currently selected process +to move in the list, make the selection bar follow it. This is useful for +monitoring a process: this way, you can keep a process always visible on +screen. When a movement key is used, "follow" loses effect. +.TP +.B U +Shadow other users: processes belonging to other users are displayed in +dim color (requires a capable terminal). +.TP +.B K +Hide kernel threads: prevent the threads belonging the kernel to be +displayed in the process list. +.TP +.B Ctrl-L +Refresh: redraw screen and recalculate values. +.TP +.B Numbers +PID search: type in process ID and the selection highlight will be moved to it. +.PD + +.SH "AUTHORS" +.LP +htop is developed by Hisham Muhammad <lode@gobolinux.org>. +.br +This man page was written by Bartosz Fenski <fenio@o2.pl> for the +Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but it may be used by others), and +updated by Hisham Muhammad. |
