15Lttngtop is an ncurses interface for reading and browsing traces recorded by
16the LTTng tracer and displaying various statistics.
17As of now, the cpu usage, per file/process I/O bandwidth and perf counters are
18displayed. This release is the first one that handles live sessions as well as
19offline sessions.

38To compile Babeltrace and lttngtop, you need:
39
40 gcc 3.2 or better
41 libc6 development librairies
42 (Debian : libc6, libc6-dev)
43 (Fedora : glibc, glibc)
44 glib 2.22 or better development libraries
45 (Debian : libglib2.0-0, libglib2.0-dev)
46 (Fedora : glib2, glib2-devel)
47 libpopt >= 1.13 development libraries
48 (Debian : libpopt-dev)
49 (Fedora : popt)

60For developers using the git tree:
61
62This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
63portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
64compile the git repository tree :
65
66- GNU autotools (automake >=1.10, autoconf >=2.50, autoheader >=2.50)
67 (make sure your system wide "automake" points to a recent version!)
68- GNU Libtool >=2.2
69 (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
70
71If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the "bootstrap"
72script in the root of the tree. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the
73tree configuration.
