Ncancel is a Python-based terminal application for managing Slurm jobs. It uses the curses library to provide a user-friendly, interactive interface for monitoring and managing jobs submitted to a Slurm workload manager. This tool simplifies the process of job management by allowing users to view, refresh, and cancel jobs directly from the terminal.
