I am a big fan of htop and would like to know if it is possible to turn it into a widget? I currently use Fedora 23 with Gnome 3.18.5.Currently I just open a terminal, resize it so show only the resource bars an top info, select always on top, Always on visible workspace and hide the menu bar. Is there any way to create a persistent terminal with htop that would appear when I login?If not, any alternative light weight resource monitor you suggest that could be used as a desktop widget?
Turn htop into widget
fedora;terminal;gnome shell;htop;wxwidgets
Yes, Conky lua can be a better option. for you to get a desktop widget. But you need to modify it with htop. conky uses top.
