SYNOPSIS
--------
**glances** [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
**glances** is a cross-platform curses-based monitoring tool that aims
to present a maximum of information in a minimum of space, ideally fitting
in a classic 80x24 terminal or larger for more details. It can adapt
dynamically to the displayed information depending on the terminal size.
It can also work in client/server mode.
Remote monitoring can be performed via a terminal or web interface.
**glances** is written in Python and uses the *psutil* library to get
information from your system.
