## NAME
bb — your system's Big Brother
## SYNOPSIS
```
bb
```
## DESCRIPTION
simple process viewer (for functionalities, see shortcuts below)
![screenshot](screenshot.png)
## WHY
This is a "weekend" side-project made for fun, but it ended up somewhat useful and fast. Performance seems on par with `htop` without having done any benchmarks, however in contrast to `htop`, `bb` doesn't leave artifacts when it redraws the screen. I am not completely sure this is `htop`'s fault though, feel free to correct me.
## INSTALL
Prerequisites: [cargo](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) >= 1.36, Linux
```
cargo install bb
```
## BUILD
Prerequisites: rustc, cargo >= 1.36, Linux
Execute `cargo build --release`, resulting binary will be in
./target/release/bb
## SHORTCUTS

'F' Follow process and its children. Type the pid you want to follow
'k' Kill process under cursor
Press Enter to confirm kill, or Esc to cancel
'f' (un)freeze process list updates
