nyx - Man Page

nyx [OPTION]

Nyx is a command line interface for Tor (https://www.torproject.org/), providing detailed real-time relaying information for...

 * bandwidth, cpu, and memory usage
 * connection information
 * tor configuration
 * event logs
 * etc

As a curses interface Nyx is particularly well suited for ssh connections, tty  terminals, and command-line aficionados to check the status of tor.

Nyx can be customized through a configuration file located at ~/.nyx/config. For options see https://nyx.torproject.org/#configuration.
