How to install htop on MacOS

htop is a great interactive process viewer in text-mode, but unfortunately it works only on Linux.
Fortunately I found in Github a htop version for OSX and it works perfectly.

To install it, before you’ll need to have git (if you already don’t have git installed :) ).
So, below you can see how to install it.

git clone git://github.com/AndyA/htop-osx.git
cd htop-osx
git checkout -b osx origin/osx
export CFLAGS="-m32"
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install

To run it, just execute htop in your terminal. ;)

[Video] Testing the Chromium OS in Virtual Box

Like most people, I also wanted to know about the new operating system Google’s Chromium OS, then in a quick search I found a link to download a virtual machine with Virtual Box Chromium OS.

An interesting point about the new OS is that logging in, you must have a Gmail account.

The link to download the VM is http://www.ausgamers.com/news/read/2816103

I made a video showing how to use the VM in Virtual Box.
