Htop CentOS installation

A simple how to install htop on CentOS in OpenVZ.

Because htop is non existent in yum repositories you need to download htop from the developer's sourceforge page.

So here's the code (not by me, check references). Enjoy.

wget downloads.sourceforge.net/project/htop/htop/1.0.1/htop-1.0.1 .tar.gz

yum install ncurses-devel gcc make
  
tar xvzf htop-1.0.1.tar.gz
  
cd htop-1.0.1
  
./configure --enable-openvz
  
make
  
make install
  
mv /usr/local/bin/htop /usr/bin/
