Rust reimplementation of the procps project
Provides command line and full screen utilities for browsing procfs, a "pseudo" file system dynamically generated by the kernel to provide information about the status of entries in its process table (such as whether the process is running, stopped, or a "zombie").
Ongoing:
free: Shows the amount of free and used memory in the system.pgrep: Searches for processes based on name and other attributes.pidof: Find the process ID of a running program.pidwait: Waits for a specific process to terminate.pmap: Displays the memory map of a process.ps: Displays information about active processes.pwdx: Shows the current working directory of a process.slabtop: Displays detailed kernel slab cache information in real time.snice: Changes the scheduling priority of a running process.top: Displays real-time information about system processes.w: Shows who is logged on and what they are doing.watch: Executes a program periodically, showing output fullscreen.
TODO:
hugetop: Report hugepage usage of processes and the system as a whole.pkill: Kills processes based on name and other attributes.skill: Sends a signal to processes based on criteria like user, terminal, etc.sysctl: Read or write kernel parameters at run-time.tload: Prints a graphical representation of system load average to the terminal.vmstat: Reports information about processes, memory, paging, block IO, traps, and CPU activity.
Elsewhere:
killis already implemented in https://github.com/uutils/coreutilsuptime: Shows how long the system has been running, including load average. is already implemented in https://github.com/uutils/coreutils
