MY TOP

Epitech Project · Group of two · Ncurses

Description :

MY_TOP is an Epitech project recreating the top command in C using the ncurses library. The program displays system statistics such as uptime, CPU and memory usage, load averages, and a list of running processes with their PID, user, memory usage, CPU usage, priority, nice value, runtime, and command. It supports filtering by user, custom refresh delays, and allows sending signals to processes.
