How to install htop on Arch Linux

To install htop on Arch Linux, you can use the following steps:

  1. Update the package manager index:
    sudo pacman -Sy

  2. Install htop:
    sudo pacman -S htop
    This installs htop and all of its dependencies.

You can verify the installation by running the htop command, which should launch the htop utility.

htop is an interactive process viewer for Linux that allows you to view and manage processes on your system. It provides a more user-friendly interface than the default top utility, with features such as a color-coded process list and the ability to kill processes using a mouse.

Note: These steps assume that you are using Arch Linux, which uses the pacman package manager. If you are using a different Linux distribution, you may need to use a different package manager or different commands to install htop.
