817Version 2.1
818===========
819
820    * Add user process filter feature
821      User can define a process filter pattern (as a regular expression).
822      The pattern could be defined from the command line (-f <pattern>)
823      or by pressing the ENTER key in the curse interface.
824      For the moment, process filter feature is only available in standalone mode.
825    * Add extended processes informations for top process
826      Top process stats availables: CPU affinity, extended memory information (shared, text, lib, datat, dirty, swap), open threads/files and TCP/UDP network sessions, IO nice level
827      For the moment, extended processes stats are only available in standalone mode.
828    * Add --process-short-name tag and '/' key to switch between short/command line
829    * Create a max_processes key in the configuration file
830      The goal is to reduce the number of displayed processes in the curses UI and
831      so limit the CPU footprint of the Glances standalone mode.
832      The API always return all the processes, the key is only active in the curses UI.
833      If the key is not define, all the processes will be displayed.
834      The default value is 20 (processes displayed).
835      For the moment, this feature is only available in standalone mode.
836    * Alias for network interfaces, disks and sensors
837      Users can configure alias from the Glances configuration file.
838    * Add Glances log message (in the /tmp/glances.log file)
839      The default log level is INFO, you can switch to the DEBUG mode using the -d option on the command line.
840    * Add RESTful API to the Web server mode
841      RESTful API doc: https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/wiki/The-Glances-RESTFULL-JSON-API
842    * Improve SNMP fallback mode for Cisco IOS, VMware ESXi
843    * Add --theme-white feature to optimize display for white background
844    * Experimental history feature (--enable-history option on the command line)
845      This feature allows users to generate graphs within the curse interface.
846      Graphs are available for CPU, LOAD and MEM.
847      To generate graph, click on the 'g' key.
848      To reset the history, press the 'r' key.
849      Note: This feature uses the matplotlib library.
850    * CI: Improve Travis coverage
851
852Bugs corrected:
853
854    * Quitting glances leaves a column layout to the current terminal (issue #392)

875Version 2.0
876===========
877
878    Glances v2.0 is not a simple upgrade of the version 1.x but a complete code refactoring.
879    Based on a plugins system, it aims at providing an easy way to add new features.
880    - Core defines the basics and commons functions.
881    - all stats are grabbed through plugins (see the glances/plugins source folder).
882    - also outputs methods (Curse, Web mode, CSV) are managed as plugins.
883
884    The Curse interface is almost the same than the version 1.7. Some improvements have been made:
885    - space optimisation for the CPU, LOAD and MEM stats (justified alignment)
886    - CPU:
887        . CPU stats are displayed as soon as Glances is started
888        . steal CPU alerts are no more logged
889    - LOAD:
890        . 5 min LOAD alerts are no more logged

900    Glances 2.0 brings a brand new Web Interface. You can run Glances in Web server mode and
901    consult the stats directly from a standard Web Browser.
902
903    The client mode can now fallback to a simple SNMP mode if Glances server is not found on the remote machine.
