CLUSTER NETWORK-REAL-TIME · 27 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2008-01-27

Terminal network monitoring tools

This cluster comprises command-line and terminal-UI tools that monitor network interfaces, bandwidth, latency, and connection statistics in real time, often with htop-like or dockapp interfaces. Entry dates before the index start are sparse and intermittent from 2005 through 2026, with a slight concentration of members appearing in mid-2026. Traction leaders, all with zero stars, include pcanview-ncurses-bin, cxnet-bin, and netinfo-tui.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 20 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
