Built this because I was tired of opening Task Manager

Hey PH community

Every time I needed to check CPU or kill a process on Windows, I had to leave the terminal.

That friction bothered me enough that I built pstop, a native htop experience for PowerShell.

htop for Windows Powershell - pstop - htop for Windows - terminal process monitor built in Rust

pstop brings the htop experience to Windows PowerShell, fully native. No WSL. No Cygwin. Just type htop and it works. Per core CPU bars, memory, swap and network meters, process tree, search, filters, setup menu, kill, renice, CPU affinity, multiple color schemes and persistent config. Built in Rust with ratatui and crossterm using Win32 APIs. About 1 MB. MIT licensed. https://github.com/marlocarlo/pstop
