entropymon
Terminal system monitor by Electric Entropy Lab
A powerful, feature-rich terminal system monitor built with Python curses. Better than glances, prettier than htop.
Features
- CPU - per-core usage bars, sparkline history, frequency, load average
- Memory - RAM/Swap with usage bars
- Disk - partitions with usage, IO rates (read/write)
- Network - RX/TX rates with sparklines, per-interface info
- GPU - NVIDIA (via NVML) and AMD (via sysfs) - utilization, VRAM, temp, power, fan, clocks
- Temperatures - CPU, GPU, NVMe, network adapters
- Processes - interactive management with sorting, filtering, kill signals, renice, details
- Multi-language - EN, PL, DE, ES, FR, UK, ZH with runtime switching
- Animated intro - matrix rain boot sequence with decrypt logo animation
Install
pip install entropymon
With NVIDIA GPU support:
pip install entropymon[nvidia]
Usage
entropymon # start with auto-detected language
entropymon --lang pl # start in Polish
entropymon --no-intro # skip boot animation
entropymon --reset-lang # reset saved language preference
entropymon --version # show version
