Is anyone you interested in a GUI process monitoring utility?
I've been working on one for my own use. It as has somewhat similar aims as "top", but takes a different approach concentrating more on the "overview" and less on the numbers.
I wanted to be more aware of processes that were active and their patterns of activity. I wanted desktop notifications for processes that consume resources excessively (PROCess NOtifications - procno). Procno partly hearkens back to the days of mainframes with rows of blinking lights.
If that rings any bells for you, please have a look at:
https://github.com/digitaltrails/procno
There's a video and screen shot, so you need not waste much time reading.
Interesting :-) (note: the video has to be expanded to full screen, or the letters are not readable)
It's still a work in progress, but it does much of what I want. Development will likely slowdown from now on, perhaps adding more validation, or a few more features, such as a nice/renice control or more process info.
BTW, procno is partly based on jouno (another pet project of mine). If you're interested in a "different" take on monitoring the journal, one that also makes use of desktop notifications, you should take a look at
https://github.com/digitaltrails/jouno
As explained at github, both of these are available as community packages at
Er... please, tell which community repository it is, the complete URL. As you should know, package search is not working and it is not possible to find where your packages are. https://software.opensuse.org/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&baseproject=openSUSE%3ALeap%3A15.2&q=procno https://software.opensuse.org/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&baseproject=openSUSE%3AFactory&q=procno
Both are just stand-alone Qt python scripts that can also just be grabbed from github (all the install options are explained at github).
Enjoy, or not, as you see fit :-) Michael
