slash

Screenfetch-Like Augmentation for Shells

Bash sucks

While good for simple programs where latency or performance isn’t important, there are real costs to running a bash script every time you open a terminal. Use something written in an actual development language instead.

Configurability is nice

In most Screenfetch-like programs, you have fairly limited control over what inforamtion gets displayed. Not so with slash. You are given a configuration file dictating the information and format, so now you can customize to your heart’s content.

Installation

slash is still under development. At this time, you should clone the repository and run make. lspci is expected for finding out GPU information.

Thanks

Bash or no, the programming behind screenfetch and neofetch has proven a valuable resource when looking for a place to get started. Thanks for the idea and for providing these useful tools to the community.
