Still no Windows though.

Haha everyone used to mock MS because cross platform to them meant Win16 AND Win32. Now we use it to mean various flavours of Linux. Progress?

It also works on various BSDs and OS X in addition to Linux.

If it did not try so hard to emulate nmon poorly, I'd use it more.

Oh the vtop inspired bar is def cool! regular top has been catching up though and while htop is different and perhaps still better, regular top does the job for me in most cases.

It might depend on which top (BSD,GNU,?)

Yep! Perfect! Now I don't need to do some kind of magic :) when installing on my FreeBSD servers. Congrats!

It might not be hard to implement now, with the OOP-ish structure of the project. Cygwin is mentioned in the slides.

I think htop and lua are probably the two main Brazilian contributions to the open source community.

I wager Elixir counts.

Wow, had no idea Elixir was created by a Brazilian as well. Nice, thanks!

http://drunken-security.at/is-it-a-good-idea-to-show-everybo... has a live htop background :-)

It is mentioned in TFA.
