`nvtop {{[-C|--no-color]}}`

- Use Fahrenheit for temperature display:

`nvtop {{[-f|--freedom-unit]}}`

- Always show encoder/decoder meters, disabling auto-hide:

`nvtop {{[-E|--encode-hide]}} -1`

- Show a single combined bar plot instead of per-GPU plots:

`nvtop {{[-p|--no-plot]}}`

- Show the program version:

`nvtop {{[-v|--version]}}`
