From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

sorry i panicked and killed the process this is the only screenshot ihave, basically my laptop fan was revving high for 1 hour straight, i was doing some text editing and light usage so i didnt think much off it, but i left my system for a while and came back and saw the fan was still revving, thats when i found this process
"more" allows you to view files. And agreed, if used incorrectly, might cause extra CPU. Generally mistakes like this just become memory hogs.
Thank you after reading the comments i am relieved: I had saved a 3 page fully worded .odt as as .fodt and opened it with a text editor; but then again all the files had been closed and i deleted the file in question a at least 30 mins before i noticed the process; regardless thank you
