The Linux Process Explorer aims to be a Linux equivalent of (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer). This project is a continuation of my project located at https://sourceforge.net/projects/procexp/.

Goals of this project

1. Revive the old code, refactor and complete functionality
2. Pack it for Debian, Ubuntu, Redhat, Fedora and Mint
3. Make the process explorer a standard component of above mentioned distro's
4. Everything else which will be needed
