SYNOPSIS
--------

**glances** [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
-----------

**glances** is a cross-platform curses-based monitoring tool which aims
to present a maximum of information in a minimum of space, ideally to
fit in a classical 80x24 terminal or higher to have additional
information. It can adapt dynamically the displayed information
depending on the terminal size. It can also work in client/server mode.
Remote monitoring could be done via terminal or web interface.

**glances** is written in Python and uses the *psutil* library to get
information from your system.
