### Colorschemes

gotop ships with a few colorschemes which can be set with the `-c` flag followed by the name of one. You can find all the colorschemes in the [colorschemes folder](./colorschemes).

To make a custom colorscheme, check out the [template](./colorschemes/template.go) for instructions and then use [default.json](./colorschemes/default.json) as a starter. Then put the file at `~/.config/gotop/{name}.json` on Linux or `~/Library/Application Support/gotop/{name}.json` on OSX and load it with `gotop -c {name}`. Colorschemes PR's are welcome!

### CLI Options

`-c`, `--color=NAME` Set a colorscheme.  
`-m`, `--minimal` Only show CPU, Mem and Process widgets.  
`-r`, `--rate=RATE` Number of times per second to update CPU and Mem widgets [default: 1].  
`-v`, `--version` Print version and exit.  
`-p`, `--percpu` Show each CPU in the CPU widget.  
`-a`, `--averagecpu` Show average CPU in the CPU widget.  
`-s`, `--statusbar` Show a statusbar with the time.  
`-b`, `--battery` Show battery level widget (`minimal` turns off). [widget preview](./assets/battery.png)
