    * History feature (--enable-history option on the command line)
      This feature allows users to generate graphs within the curse interface.
      Graphs are available for CPU, LOAD and MEM.
      To generate graph, click on the 'g' key.
      To reset the history, press the 'r' key.
    * Alias for network interfaces, disks and sensors
      Users can configure alias from the Glances configuration file.

    - Core defines the basics and commons functions.
    - all stats are grabbed through plugins (see the glances/plugins source folder).
    - also outputs methods (Curse, Web mode, CSV) are managed as plugins.

    - space optimisation for the CPU, LOAD and MEM stats (justified alignment)
    - CPU:
A
Alessio Sergi 已提交
52
        . CPU stats are displayed as soon as Glances is started
N
Nicolargo 已提交
53 54 55 56 57 58
        . steal CPU alerts are no more logged
    - LOAD:
        . 5 min LOAD alerts are no more logged
    - File System:
        . Display the device name (if space is available)
    - Sensors:
A
Alessio Sergi 已提交
59
        . Sensors and HDD temperature are displayed in the same block
N
Nicolargo 已提交
60 61 62 63 64
    - Process list:
        . Refactor columns: CPU%, MEM%, VIRT, RES, PID, USER, NICE, STATUS, TIME, IO, Command/name
        . The running processes status is highlighted
        . The process name is highlighted in the command line
