## IRC
Neofetch now has an irc channel at `#neofetch` on Freenode. If you have any questions, issues or ideas feel free to join the irc channel and I'll be happy to assist you. I know that we've already got the gitter chat but hopefully this makes things easier for those without a github account. :)

## Collaborators
I have given collaborator acces to both **[@konimex](https://github.com/konimex)** and **[@iandrewt](https://github.com/iandrewt)**. In short this allows them to push directly to the master branch of the repo, manage the issue tracker and also merge pull requests. They've been a huge help the past year so this made sense to me.
## OS
- Added support for AIX.
- Added support for AntiX.
- Added support for GNU/kFreeBSD.
- Added support for Gentoo FreeBSD.
- Added support for GrombyangOS.
- Added support for Joyent SmartOS.
- Added support for Mer.
- Added support for MINIX.
- Added support for MX.
- Added support for Open Source Media Center (OSMC).
- Added support for SalentOS.
- Added support for TrueOS.
- Added support for Windows (MSYS2).
## General
- The config file is now installed to `/etc/neofetch/config` and acts as a system-wide config file for neofetch. Editing this file will make the changes available to all users on the system. Those packaging Neofetch **without** using the Makefile will need to make changes to support this.
- Removed executable permission from config files. BASH can source them even if they're un-executable.
- Travis now runs [shellcheck](https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck) on every commit and pull request.
- We've had to exclude around 10 lint errors, see this wiki page for why we did this:
- https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/wiki/Shellcheck-Exclusions
- Neofetch now supports relative path values when specifying the location to images, ascii files and config files.
- For example, `neofetch --w3m Pictures/Wallpapers/10.jpg` and `neofetch --w3m 10.jpg` now work.
- Optimize usage of `get_de()`, `get_wm()` and `get_term().
- We were calling these multiple times, we now only run them once and check to see if they were run previously.
- Optimize info caching, only check for cache files in functions that use caching.
- The manpage is now generated using `help2man`. `help2man` parses the output of `--help` and `--version` to create a manpage. This ensures that our manpage stays 1:1 with the script documentation. We actually found a lot of outdated info in the old manpage thanks to this.
- A new flag was added called `--gen-man` which generates a neofetch manpage in your current directory.
- Delete most of `info()` and instead call `prin()`.
- This removes a lot of duplicate code between `info()` and `prin()`.
- Remove `printf` subshells and instead use `printf -v` to declare the variables.
- Fixed artifacts when using line-breaks in TTYs.
- All errors are now sent to `stderr`.
- Renamed `XFCE` --> `Xfce`. **[@gavinhungry](https://github.com/gavinhungry)**
- Cleanup `main()`.
- Renamed `old_flags()` --> `old_options()`.
## Info
**Shell**
- [Fish] Fixed memory leak caused by Fish.
- Added support for `xonsh`.
- Fixed version output on `ksh`.
- Rewrote the function to remove duplicate code.
**Uptime**
- Moved duplicate code to a function.
- Changed `$uptime_shorthand` to `on` by default.
**Desktop Environment**
- Fixed issues where MATE wouldn't be detected properly.
- Added fallback to `$DESKTOP_SESSION`, `$MATE_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID` and `$GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID`.
- Hide Desktop Environment if it matches Window Manager.
**CPU**
- [Linux] Don't simplify `cpufreq` speed option names for no reason.
- [Linux] Fixed issues with CPU name detection for architectures other than x86/amd64/ARM.
- [NetBSD] Remove case statement in favor of 1 line test.
- Simplify check for low CPU speeds.
- Expanded `cpu_temp` to take the values `C` and `F`. This means you can now display the CPU temperature as Fahrenheit.
**CPU Usage**
- Added Haiku cores command.
- Updated Linux and macOS commands to the match the commands in the `get_cpu()` function.
**GPU**
- [Linux] Each GPU is now printed on a separate line.
- [Linux] Added `--gpu_type` / `$gpu_type` which lets you display `all`, `dedicated` or `integrated` GPUs.
**Memory**
- [Solaris] Fixed inaccurate used memory size.
**Resolution**
- [Windows] Declare variables locally to fix conflicts in other functions.
**~~Birthday~~ Install Date**
- Renamed `get_birthday()` -- > `get_install_date()`
- Removed all `date` command usage from `get_install_date()`.
- Added a new function called `convert_time()` which takes the time stamped `ls` output and converts it to a pretty format. The function only uses bash so its much faster than calling `date`. This makes things simple and keeps the output consistent across all Operating Systems. Example: `2016-12-06 16:58:58.000000000` --> `Tue 06 Dec 2016 4:58 PM`
- Added an option so users can choose between using 24-hour and 12-hour time format
- `get_install_date()` will detect which `ls` program is being used instead of hardcoding them per OS.
**Disk**
- Rewrote function from scratch.
- The function is `40` lines smaller than before and works on all \[1\] versions of `df` we tested on \[2\].
- Added the option/flag `disk_show` which allows you to specify which disks, mount points or directories to show the disk info of. (One per line)
- Added the option/flag `disk_subtitle` which allows you to specify how we label each disk. (Mount point or Disk name)
- Removed all percentage calculation since `df` already provides us with the percentage.
- Warn the user if `df` isn't installed.
- Fixed broken output if `df` wasn't installed but the function was enabled.
\[1\] The function doesn't work on Haiku since their `df` is wildly non-standard. (The output format and flags are 100% different from all of the other `df` versions floating around.)
\[2\] Tested on `GNU`, `Busybox`, `BSD`, `Solaris` and `macOS` `df` versions.
**Theme**
- [KDE] Don't display GTK Themes if KDE is detected.
- [KDE] If `kde[0-9]-config` isn't found, try and look for `$HOME/.kde`.

- [Windows] Support multiple interfaces.
**Color Blocks**
- Use `start++` instead of adding it manually after case. **[@konimex](https://github.com/konimex)**
- Fixed bug where color blocks wouldn't respect width in TTYs.
- Cursor positioning now takes `$block_height` into account.
- Fixed all artifacts in virtual consoles.
- Merged `$start` and `$end` into an array called `block_range`.
- This makes the config option match the command-line flag `--block_range`.
## Images
- [iTerm2] Fixed blank images.
- Fixed bug where image mode would attempt to run in a TTY.
- All of the image/ascii backend handling was rewritten. Backend and Image/File/Directory selection is universal now and should make usage easier.
- Added `catimg` backend.
- Added `caca` backend.
- Added `jp2a` backend.
- `--image` has been replaced with `--backend`.
- `--backend` takes `ascii`, `caca`, `catimg`, `jp2a`, `iterm2`, `off`, `tycat`, `w3m`.
- Shortcut flags were added for easy picking of backends.
- Each flag can take a file, image or directory as an argument.
- For example: `neofetch --w3m /path/to/img.jpg` `neofetch --ascii /path/to/file`
- `--w3m`
- `--iterm2`
- `--tycat`
- `--ascii`
- `--off`
- `--catimg`
- `--caca`
- `--jp2a`
- All image and ascii file selection has been replaced with the universal `--source`.
- The value of `--source` can be any of the following:
- `auto`, `ascii`, `wallpaper`, `/path/to/img`, `/path/to/ascii`, `/path/to/dir/`.
- Fixed bugs with image shuffle mode.
## Wallpaper
- Decode URI filenames.
## Ascii
- Simplified ascii file handling.
- Removed a call to `tr` for those using `bash 3`.
- Fixed distro detection issues.
- Removed the assumption that `first word in distro --> ascii file name`
- Added Ubuntu-Studio. **[@konimex](https://github.com/konimex)**
- Fixed bug causing macOS ascii art to be used on other Operating Systems.
- Display warning about 'ascii' being the new default mode.
- Removed `ascii_logo_size` in favor of `ascii_distro='{arch,crux,gentoo}_small'`.
- [PCBSD] Use TrueOS ascii art.
- Added Void Linux (small) and Alpine Linux (small).
## Screenshot
- Use arrays for `$scrot_program`
## Args
- Fixed bug where `neofetch --config` sourced the user config twice.
- Cleaned up config arg handling.
