This is the home of my fetch script! This script gathers info <br />
about your system and prints it to the terminal next to an image of your choice!

<!-- Features {{{ -->


## Features


- **Supports Linux, Mac OS X and Windows (Cygwin)!**
    - If the script isn't working on your system
      open an issue.
- **It's Fast**
    - The script makes heavy use of bash builtins
      and string manipulation.
- **Display an image next to the info. (or not)**
    - The script can use your wallpaper, shuffle through a
      directory or just display an image.
- **Highly Customizable**
    - You can customize almost everything.
        - See Usage below or lines 23-233 in script
- **Take a screenshot at the end.**
    - It's disabled by default and you can specify the cmd
      to use with ```--scrotcmd cmd``` at launch or by
      changing the value of ```$scrotcmd``` in the script.
- **Smart crop (or Waifu crop)**
    - See https://github.com/dylanaraps/fetch/wiki/What-is-Smart-Crop%3F

<!-- Dependences {{{ -->


## Dependencies


These are the script's required dependencies

-  Bash **4.0+**
-  Text formatting, dynamic image size and padding: tput
-  Uptime detection: procps or procps-ng

These are the script's optional dependencies:

-  Displaying Images: w3m
    - You may also need w3m-img
-  Image Cropping: ImageMagick
-  Display Wallpaper: feh
-  Current Song: mpc
-  Resolution Detection: xorg-xdpyinfo
-  Window manager detection: wmctrl
    - This is used as a fallback to parsing ```.xinitrc``` and ```$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP```.
-  Take a screenshot on script finish: scrot
    - You can change this to another program with a ```--scrotcmd``` and an in script option.

### Others

1. Download the latest source at https://github.com/dylanaraps/fetch

<!-- Usage {{{ -->


## Usage

**NOTE:** For the images to be sized correctly you need to set the ```$font_width``` variable.
If you don't know your font width in pixels keep trying values until the image is sized correctly.

You can customize what info to print by editing the info array near the top of the script.
The array looks like this:

```sh
info=(
    "gettitle"
    "underline"
    "OS: getdistro"
    "Kernel: getkernel"
    "Uptime: getuptime"
    "Packages: getpackages"
    "Shell: getshell"
    "Resolution: getresolution"
    "Window Manager: getwindowmanager"
    "GTK Theme: getgtktheme"
    "Icons: getgtkicons"
    "CPU: getcpu"
    "Memory: getmemory"
    "linebreak"
    "getcols"
)
```

See these comments inside the script for more info:

https://github.com/dylanaraps/fetch/blob/master/fetch#L29

The script now supports dynamic image sizing and padding,
<br\> it's enabled by default and there's a variable you
<br\> need to set for it to work correctly.

You can either change the variable $fontwidth inside of the
<br\> script or launch it with ```--font_width num```.

Once you set the var the script will scale the image and padding
<br\> to fit your terminal window.

<!-- TODO {{{ -->


## TODO

Here's what's on my todo list

- Add Windows resolution detection

- Cleanup of info array handling

- Imagemagick optimizations

- More info outputs. Now that it's easy to customize what's printed and
  everything is a function we can add optional support for pretty much anything.

    - Resolution (Done!)
    - GTK themes (Done!)
    - Terminal Font
    - GPU
    - IP
    - etc
