Portable command line tools based on psutil

Cross-platform command line utilities based on psutil.

Motivation

There is a set of well known command line utilities such as ps, top, netstat etc. which are available on pretty much all UNIX platforms (but not Windows). Most of them work similarly but all have minor or major differences regarding the command line options and the printed output, both of which are not standarized.

The aim of this project is to provide clones of the most famous UNIX CLI utilities such as ps, top, netstat, etc. which are portable across all UNIX platforms and Windows and which all provide the same interface in terms of cmdline parsing and printed output.

NOTE: still a work in progress.

Utilities

• psutil-sysmem: system memory info.
• psutil-procsmem: shows "real" (USS) memory usage for all processes.

psutil-cli's Issues

Feature request: ps aux --forest

I use ps aux --forest often.

I would love to see this implemented.

The linux ps tool cuts usernames after some characters. But I want names like foobar_blu_p not to get cut. Since I need to see the difference to foobar_blu_q. In my case one the production system, and the other is the quality assurance system.
