I wrote this little top-like command-line system monitor, tiptop. I think it looks pretty neat and you might like it too. Install with

$ pip install tiptop

Let me know what you think!

'Works on all operating systems'.

That is a magnificent achievement. I'm very out of the loop WRT modern windows (we're at 11, not?) but even if it became very unixy, I'd still imagine a lot of work was done to present the data consistently.

tiptop stands on the shoulders of giants here. Textual (for displaying) and psutil (for fetching the data) do a great job, and tiptop's job is more or less down to intercepting some exceptions that occur only on Windows or so.
