Glances
=======

.. image:: _static/screenshot-wide.png

Glances is a cross-platform monitoring tool that aims to present
maximum information in minimal space through either a curses-based
or Web-based interface. It can dynamically adapt the displayed
information depending on the terminal size.

It can also work in client/server mode. Remote monitoring can be
done via terminal, Web interface, or API (XMLRPC and RESTful).

Glances is written in Python and uses the `psutil`_ library to get
information from your system.

Stats can also be exported to external time/value databases.
