This is the home of my fetch script! This script gathers info
about your system and prints it to the terminal next to an image, <br > your distro's logo or any ascii art of your choice!

Have a look at the wiki, I've updated/added some new pages!<br > https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/wiki

• Supports Linux, macOS, iOS, BSD, Solaris, Android and Windows (Cygwin/Windows 10 Linux subsystem)
• Display a full color image, a file containing ascii art or your distro's logo in ascii next to the info.
• The script is fast. We use bash builtins wherever possible and only spawn external processes when necessary.
• Take a screenshot of your desktop on script finish.
• Customize which info is displayed, where it's displayed and when it's displayed.

These dependencies are required for image mode to work.

• Displaying images: w3m-img [1] or iTerm2 or Terminology [2]
• Thumbnail creation: imagemagick
• Window size: A terminal emulator that supports \033[14t [3] or xdotool or xwininfo + xprop or xwininfo + xdpyinfo

[1] w3m-img is sometimes bundled together with w3m.

[2] Image support is built into Terminology and iTerm2, and doesn't require w3m-img.

[3] See this wiki page to find out if your terminal emulator supports \033[14t or if you need an additonal dependency.

• Google Play Music Desktop Player: gpmdp-remote
• MPD: mpc
• CMUS: cmus
• MOC: moc
• Spotify: spotify
• Rhythmbox: rhythmbox
• Banshee: banshee
• Amarok: amarok
• Deadbeef: deadbeef

• Desktop Environment and Window Manager: xprop [1]

[1] See #79 about why this is now a required dependency.

Linux, BSD and Solaris

• Wallpaper: feh, nitrogen or gsettings

Windows and macOS

• No additional dependencies needed.

Linux, BSD and Solaris

• Resolution: xorg-xrandr or xorg-xdpyinfo [1]

macOS

• Resolution (quicker): screenresolution [2]

[1] Xrandr is prefered over xdpyinfo as Xrandr supports multi monitor and refresh rate display in the<br > output.

[2] screenresolution is installed for you when using homebrew.

• Screenshot: scrot [1]

[1] You can use the launch flag --scrot_cmd or change the config option $scrot_cmd to your screenshot<br > program's cmd and neofetch will use it instead of scrot.

BSD and Solaris

• GPU: glxinfo
  • Not required on FreeBSD.

These dependencies can all be installed through Cydia.<br > Note: The cydia package installs these dependencies for you.

• Bourne-Again SHell
• Core Utilities
• Core Utilities (/bin)
• Darwin Tools
• system-cmds
• Gawk
• grep

• bash
• busybox

Note: I recommend installing termux from the Play Store or F-Droid. Termux provides you with a fully working Linux environment, doesn't require root acess and includes all dependencies.

Note2: Neofetch is in Termux's official repos.

Those using a git version of neofetch should check this page after<br > updating, this page lists any breaking changes that were made and<br > how you can workaround them.

4. Install the package
   • sudo apt-get install neofetch

NOTE: If you are using RHEL/CentOS, change dnf into yum.

1. Make sure you have installed dnf-plugins-core
2. Enable COPR repository
   • sudo dnf copr enable konimex/neofetch
3. Install the package
   • sudo dnf install neofetch

Alternatively:

1. Change your working directory to /etc/yum.repos.d/
2. Fetch the repo file
   • wget https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/konimex/neofetch/repo/epel-7/konimex-neofetch-epel-7.repo
     • NOTE: If you are using Fedora, change epel-7 to fedora-23 or your Fedora version respectively. However if you are using RHEL/CentOS 6, change it to epel-6.
3. Install the package
   • sudo dnf install neofetch

Install it from the official repositories

• sudo xbps-install -S neofetch

Neofetch is available in the official repos.

1. sudo apt-get update
2. sudo apt-get install neofetch

Use the Software Center or type sudo eopkg it neofetch.

Download the files from SlackBuilds and follow their instructions.

1. Install neofetch with Homebrew
   • brew install neofetch

1. Add http://dylanaraps.com/repo to your cydia sources.
2. Install neofetch through cydia.

You can install it using apt install neofetch

1. Download the latest source at https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch
2. Run make install inside the script directory to install the script.
   • El Capitan: PREFIX=/usr/local make install

NOTE: Neofetch can be uninstalled easily using make uninstall.

NOTE: You can run neofetch from any folder on your system, all the makefile does is move the files to a "sane" location. The makefile is optional.

Neofetch will by default create a config file at $HOME/.config/neofetch/config and this file<br > contains all of the script's options/settings. The config file allows you to keep your<br > customizations between script versions and allows you to easily share your customizations<br > with other people.

You can launch the script without a config file by using the flag --config none and you can<br > specify a custom config location using --config path/to/config.

In the config file there's a function that allows you to customize all of the info that<br > gets displayed.

Here's what you can do:

• Add new info lines
• Change the ordering of the info
• Remove unwanted info lines
• Use bash syntax to control when info gets displayed

See this wiki page that goes more in-depth about it:

https://github.com/dylanaraps/fetch/wiki/Customizing-Info

If you don't want to use the config file you can customize almost everything using launch flags!

Here's an example neofetch alias:

alias neofetch2="neofetch \
--config off \
--block_range 1 8 \
--bold off \
--uptime_shorthand on \
--gtk_shorthand on \
--colors 4 1 8 8 8 7 \
"

usage: neofetch --option "value" --option "value"

NOTE: There's also a config option for each flag below.

Other:
--config /path/to/config    Specify a path to a custom config file
--config none               Launch the script without a config file
--help                      Print this text and exit
--version                   Show neofetch version
--test                      Launch the script with all functions / options enabled.
                            This should only be used for testing purposes, ie Travis.CI.
-v                          Display error messages.
-vv                         Display a verbose log for error reporting.

Launching the script with --ascii or setting image="ascii" <br > inside the config file will launch the script in "screenfetch mode". The script will<br > display your distro's ascii next to the info, exactly like screenfetch.

NOTE: If you don't have w3m-img or imagemagick installed screenfetch mode will be<br > used automatically

It's hard to add support for other wallpaper setters as they don't provide a way of <br > getting the current wallpaper from the cli.

If your wallpaper setter does provide a way of getting the current wallpaper or you<br > know where it's stored then adding support won't be a problem!<br >

The easiest way to fix this is to change the value of --gap or $gap<br > to a negative value. For example --gap -10 will move the text 10 spaces to the left.

If your lspci | grep "VGA" output looks like this:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1401 (rev a1)

Instead of this:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM206 [GeForce GTX 960] (rev a1)

Then you're affected by the issue.

This is caused by your /usr/share/misc/pci.ids\* files being outdated and you can fix it<br > by running this command as root.

sudo update-pciids

You need to be using the CYGWIN/Msys connector for Neofetch to work seamlessly with ConEmu.

Thanks to:

• Screenfetch:
  • I've used some snippets as a base for a few functions in this script.
  • Some of the ascii logos.
• ufetch:
  • Tiny ascii logos
• Everyone else helped out in one way or another. I'd list all of the names<br > but there's just too many of you. :)
