i'm assuming the h stands for 'whatever the h in htop stands for'? good idea.

  It's for how it's pronounced, like Hwil Hweaton

  Now I had to look that up. Htop was developed by Hisham Muhammad, and htop stands for "Hisham's top". It's a nod to pinfo, an info replacement by Przemek Borys named on the same principle.

    I always assumed the h stood for (more) human-readable, like commands such as df -h.
