#### Live Linux process and per-thread CPU, memory & context-switch inspector

A real-time Linux process and thread-level task profiler reading live kernel telemetry from /proc.
A lightweight Linux alternative to Sysinternals PsList for inspecting active processes, per-thread execution states, CPU utilization deltas, memory footprints, scheduling priorities, and context-switch counters.

Key features:

* Reads /proc/<pid>/stat, /proc/<pid>/status, /proc/<pid>/cmdline, and /proc/meminfo to measure live per-process CPU% across kernel jiffy ticks, Resident Set Size (RSS), Virtual Memory (VSZ), Shared memory, owner UID, and thread counts.
* Drills down into /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/{stat,status,comm} for any selected process to display every thread ID (TID), thread name, state (R/S/D/Z/T/I), per-thread CPU%, priority, nice value, CPU core affinity, and voluntary vs non-voluntary context switches.
* Renders live Top CPU and Top Memory consumer bar charts alongside system-wide thread state distribution metrics.
* Supports instant keyword filtering, live auto-refresh intervals, and full process + thread snapshot exports to CSV and JSON.
