Hi,

I am extremely happy to announce htop 1.0!

Time flies, I can't believe it's been eight years of development
already. It seems like yesterday that I've decided to stop writing PID
numbers every time I wanted to kill a process and started this
project. I am very happy to see this little project grow into a
reality, see it being included in repositories for many distributions,
reading nice reviews arond the web, receiving many contributions from
coders from all over the world who helped making htop better and
better over the years, and getting short "thank you!" emails that
always make my day. Thanks to all distro packagers, reviewers, code
contributors, users. The free software community is amazing; if it
wasn't for all of you, htop wouldn't be what it is now. Version
numbers are more symbolic than anything, but the stability of htop 0.9
in the past year and the cool new features introduced in this release
compelled me to call this version 1.0. We all deserve this little
"achievement". :)

What's new in version 1.0:

* Performance improvements
* Support for splitting CPU meters into two or four columns
  (thanks to Wim Heirman)
* Switch from PLPA, which is now deprecated, to HWLOC.
* Bring back support for native Linux sched_setaffinity,
  so we don't have to use HWLOC where we don't need to.
* Support for typing in user names and column fields in selection panels.
* Support for UTF-8 tree drawing
  (thanks to Bin Guo)
* Option for counting CPUs from zero
  (thanks to Sean Noonan)
* Meters update in every screen (no longer halting while on Setup, etc.)
* Stricter checks for command-line options
  (thanks to Sebastian Pipping)
* Incremental filtering
  (thanks to Seth Heeren for the idea and initial implementation)
* Try harder to find the ncurses header
  (thanks to Moritz Barsnick)
* Man page updates
  (thanks to Vincent Launchbury)
* BUGFIX: Support larger numbers for process times.
  (thanks to Tristan Nakagawa for the report.)
* BUGFIX: Segfault in BarMeterMode_draw() for small terminal widths
  (patch by Sebastian Pipping)
