###Csysdig offers a simple, intuitive, and fully customizable curses UI for sysdig

Csysdig leverages the sysdig collection system, but exports it in a user interface that you can imagine as a combination of many popular command line monitoring tools: tools like strace, tcpdump, htop, iftop and lsof.

Csysdig is part of the sysdig package, so it will be included when you [install sysdig] (http://www.sysdig.org/install/) on your machine.

Here are some resources to get you started with csysdig:

  • A 3 minute video offering a good overview of the tool functionality.
  • The man page
  • An [overview of the csysdig architecture](Csysdig View Format Reference), which explains how csysdig works and how to customize and extend it.
