Neofetch 1.8
This version of neofetch is vastly different from the previous versions and this
changelog won't cover everything that's changed. Have a look through the commit
history for more info.
There were a lot of major changes to how things work in this release so I'm expecting
bugs/things not working for people. Depending on what comes up we my release a few 1.8.X
versions.
This changelog is a bit of a mess this time around and I apologize but it should at least
get the message across.
Android support didn't make it into this release as it requires testing on more devices.
If you've got a device running android and would like to help test out the branch, check
out the open PR here: #322
This release also saw a lot more contributors which makes me really happy. Thanks to those
below for helping out. :)

Hello, sorry this release took so long. I've been extremely busy with uni and
haven't had as much time to work on neofetch.
As always, check the Following HEAD wiki page for all breaking changes
this release.
I'm also looking for some new Readme screenshots, see this github issue: #245

[1] Use neofetch -vv 2> file to save a verbose log for bug reporting.
Info
- Rewrote most BSD info functions, they're now much smaller and work on more
BSD distros.
prin
- Format changes to fix issues with colons in string. This change also makes
prinuse the same args asinfo.
# OLD Format
prin "Subtitle: Text goes here"
# NEW Format
prin "Subtitle" "Text goes here"Title
- Made title faster by using
$HOSTNAMEwhen available.
Underline
- Fixed bug with
--underline on/offnot working. - Underlining is no longer hardcoded to title length meaning you can now
underline any part of the output and the length will match. $underlinewas renamed to$underline_enabled.
# OLD Variable
underline="on"
# NEW Variable
underline_enabled="on"Distro
- Fix arch issues with ARM cpus.
- We now use
uname -mto get the arch instead of hardcodingx86. - Moved distro detection to a function called
getdistro. - Fixed issue with
ascii_distronot working.
CPU
- Fixed issues when cpu speed was < 1Ghz
- Cleanup of CPU function.
- Don't print
Dual-CoreorQuad-Corein CPU output.
GPU
- [Linux] More GPU substitutions for AMD cards.
- Added BSD support using
glxinfo.
Memory
- [Linux / Windows] Use
memavailif available for a more accurate output.
Packages
- Package count now works when the user has multiple package managers installed.
For example, if the user has bothdpkgandpacmaninstalled the function will
add up the packages from both package managers to get a grand total. (dpkg pkgs+pacman pkgs)
Uptime
- Fixed various issues with OS X and BSD.
Desktop Environment
- [ Linux ] Fallback to using
xpropif$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOPis empty. - Use
$deinstead of$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOPfor wallpaper and theme detection. - Fixed xprop bug with DE detection when X wasn't running.
- Don't assume that user is using MATE if marco wm is detected.
Window Manager Theme
- Fixed bug when
$dewas unset.
Color Blocks
- Fixed bug when the blocks wrap a line causing a large white strip to appear.
Ascii
- Added KDE neon ascii art.
- Added small OpenBSD ascii art.
- Credit goes to ufetch.
- Reduced the size of NetBSD's ascii art.
- [Windows 8/8.1] Use modern windows ascii art.
Colors
- Fixed bug with
--colorsnot working with all 256 terminal colors. --colors 7now uses the color white. [1]--colors fgnow uses the foreground color. [1]
[1] Neofetch tried to be smart before by assuming that the foreground color
would be white or black. This caused issues for those setting the foreground
color to red or etc. This change adds a new value for --colors and colors=()
called fg which will set the color to your foreground color.
Progress Bars
- The default progress bar look was changed to
[=====-----]instead of━━━━━━━━━━
fix issues with older systems. - You can now enable/disable a border around the progress bars with
progress_border.
# $progress_border on
[=====-----]
# $progress_border off
=====------ You can now individually set the progress bar characters by using
progress_char_elapsedandprogress_char_total. This means that you can
have a seperate character for the elapsed and total portions of the bar.
# Examples with $progress_border on
# Elapsed: =
# Total: -
[=====-----]
# Elapsed: .
# Total: " "
[..... ]
# Elapsed: /
# Total: " "

Fetch 1.1
Fetch 1.1 changelog
Over the past 10~ days over 190 more commits have been pushed to master and the
script has had some big changes. Thanks to everyone who has contributed, you've been
a big help.
- If
w3morimagemagickaren't installed we gracefully fallback to ascii mode. - Automatically find the
w3m-imgpath and fallback to ascii mode if not found. [1] - Fix padding escape codes on BSD systems.
- Swap escape codes from
\eto\033for consistency. - We only move the cursor to the bottom of the terminal in w3m/iterm2 rendering modes.
- Cursor position is now dynamic in ascii mode based on the height of the ascii and info text.
- If images and ascii are off, don't clear the terminal
- The script now exits correctly instead of always exiting with status code
1 - If the script exits for any reason, unhide the cursor.
- Removed duplicate blocks inside
getcpuandgetmemory. - Removed
--colorsas it was apparently broken from day 1. - Usage has been reformatted so that every flag has a value.
[1] Setting $w3m_img_path will make the script look there first.
Image
- Added support for displaying ascii art inside of text files.
- Added "screenfetch mode" which will display your distro's ascii art next to the info. [1]
- Added
--ascii_distroto choose which distro's ascii logo to display. - Added
--ascii_colorsand$ascii_colorswhich allow you to change the colors of the ascii art
and distro logos. [2] - Added
--sizeand$image_sizeto set the image size in pixels. - Rename
--shuffledirand$shuffledirtoshuffle_dir. - Rename
--imgtempdirand$imgtempdirtothumbnail_dir - Removed
--split_sizeand$split_sizeas they were weird and confusing to use. - Default thumbnail directory is now
$HOME/.cache/thumbnails/fetch. Thanks @tudurom - If
--imageand--asciiare left empty we fallback to ascii distro mode.
Example usage of ascii from file:
fetch --ascii "path/to/ascii" --ascii_color 2
[1] How do I enable screenfetch mode?
[2] ascii_colors takes a range of colors which allows you to color every aspect of
distro and OS ascii art. For custom art the script will color the entirety of it using
the first value of ascii_colors. If ascii_colors is left empty, color will be disabled.
Config file
- Fetch now has a config file that you can share with people and keep between
script versions! [1] - Added
--configand$config_fileto specify a custom config location. - Added
--config off,--config noneand$configto enable / disable config files
at launch or in script.
[1] https://github.com/dylanaraps/fetch#using-the-config-file
Makefile
- Fetch now has a make file due to the increasing number of files,
this allows the script to be easily installed and uninstalled on
systems it isn't packaged for yet! [1]
[1] The script will still work just fine on its own, you'll just be missing
the distro ascii art and the automatic config creation.
Packages
- Fetch now has a Gentoo/Funtoo e-build courtesy of @z1lt0id
Stdout
- Added
stdoutmode which allows you to fetch info in a plain text format that works
with lemonbar and in your scripts. You can use it by launching fetch with--stdoutto print all
functions enabled in yourprintinfofunction. You can selectively print functions by passing
arguments to--stdoutlike so:
# Print the output of all info functions enabled in printinfo
fetch --stdout
# Print the output of memory
fetch --stdout memory
# Print the output of memory and disk
fetch --stdout disk
# Print the output of all functions excluding x
fetch --stdout --disable kernel packages gtktheme
- Added
--stdout_separatorand$stdout_separatorwhich takes a string and adds it
as a separator between the output. - Added
--stdout_titleand$stdout_titlewhich allow you to toggle thetitle@hostname
from appearing in the output. - Added
--stdout_subtitleswhich allow you to toggle theInfo:titles from appearing in
the output.
# Hiding subtitles
fetch --stdout --stdout_subtitles off
# Custom separator
fetch --stdout disk gpu --stdout_separator " | "
NOTE: stdout_subtitles and stdout_title only work when --stdout is used on its own
without any args.
Info
- You can now display info without a subtitle. eg.
info memory - Added
--disablewhich allows you to stop an info line from appearing at launch. - Added
--underlineand$underlinewhich allow you to toggle visibility of the
underline at launch and in your config.
# Stop cpu, gpu, disk and shell functions from being called

Fetch 1.0
Fetch 1.0
There have been over 260 commits to master since I last made a release
and the script is at a point now where I can say that it's feature complete
so I'm releasing 1.0. The script now supports many more OS/distros and has
had lots of bug fixes, changes and features added.
I'm probably missing a bunch of stuff from this changelog so if i've
forgotten anything, let me know!
I'm also slowly adding pages to the wiki so check it out!
Here's what's new:
- Added full support for Windows, BSD and Mac OS X.
- Fetch is now MIT licensed
- Dropped the
.shfrom the filename and title. - Dropped support for
mkshso we can support somebashonly features. - Cleanup of everything
- Added
--prompt_heightand$prompt_heightto fix the script going<br >
offscreen due to multi-line shell prompts. This option should be set to<br >
your prompt height in lines. - The script now supports bash 4.0. It turns out that we only<br >
supported bash 4.3 - Restore cursor and clear screen on ctrl+c.
- Swap
tputcmds foransi escape sequenceswhere possible. - Added folds to make the script easier to navigate in *vim.
- Added
-Fto grep where possible for a speedup where possible. - Fix whitespace issues with different distros.
- Remove uneeded
$symbols. - Remove double negative tests.
- Added note about needing
procpsorprocps-ngfor uptime support. - Fix syntax errors in script and readme.
- All vars now use
on/offinstead of1/0. - Quote things that should be quoted.

- Fix issues with
Elementary OSandCentOS.
Mac OS X:
- Added support for other package managers.
- Fix issue with multiple resolutions in
getresolution
Windows:

getvisualstylefunction to get the current Windows theme. - Added
choclateysupport to package count.
BSD:
- Fix tput commands not working on BSD
Info:
As of commit 9daacdd the info array at the top of the script has changed
to a regular function. The benefits of this are pretty cool, you can now
use any bash syntax to customize what gets displayed. You could have an
if statment and only print window manager and gtk themes if X is running
or only show current song if there's one playing.
You can see some examples and read more about it here:
https://github.com/dylanaraps/fetch/wiki/Customizing-Info
All:
- All functions return
UnknownorNoneinstead of printing nothing.<br >
Title:
- You can now color the
@symbol in the title using--at_color,<br >
$at_colorand--colors x x x x x x.
OS:
- We now check
lsb_releasebefore looking inside of files, this fixes<br >
detection for some *buntu based distros. - We now exit if the OS type wasn't detected.
Window Manager:
wmctrlis now used by default if found.
Uptime:
- Added
--uptime_shorthandand$uptime_shorthandto make the output<br >
ofuptimesmaller and prettier. - Added new
--uptime_shorthandand$uptime_shorthandvalue<br >
calledtiny. This makes the output even tinier. eg.1d 10h 32m
GTK:
- Added functions to get GTK Theme, Icons and Font
- Added
--gtk{2,3}and$gtk{2,3}to enable/disable gtk2 or gtk3 from<br >
being displayed. - Added
--gtk_shorthandand$gtk_shorthandto make the output of<br >
gtk*smaller and prettier.
Packages:
- Remove package version and color from
Pacmanoutput - All distros are now wildcarded so that version numbers from<br >
lsb_releaseare ignored.
CPU:
- Added more cpu speed types to
--speed_typeand$speed_type. - Use
cpufreqwhen available instead of hardcoding it for specific distros.
GPU:
See issue #21
- Added function to get the current Graphics Card.
- Added support for VirtualBox GPU.
- Added
--gpu_shorthandand$gpu_shorthandto make the output ofgpu<br >
smaller and prettier.

cmussupport.
Images:

--image_backendand$image_backendto change which program<br >
is used to render the images. - The image is now displayed before the text, this fixes image<br >
rendering issues with vte based terminal emulators. - Added
$w3m_img_pathto set the location ofw3mimgdisplay. - Unified all image options, the new var
$imagetakes these<br >
values:wall,shuffle,path/to/img.png,off. - Added
shuffleto image modes. The script can now pick a random<br >
image from a specified folder to display. You can pick the shuffle<br >
directory with--shuffle_dirand$shuffle_dir - Fixed images getting cut off at the top.
- Added image size to filename which allowed us to remove a really<br >
slow check.
Wallpaper:
- Added
nitrogenandgsettingssupport. - Added wallpaper support to
Mac OS XandWindows. - Fix hang when wallpaper isn't found.
- We now check to see that
fehset the wallpaper. - Fixed wallpapers with spaces in the filename.
wallis now the default image source.
Screenshot:
The script can now take a screenshot on script finish. You can use
the flags --scrot or -s to take a screenshot.
--scrot and -s can also take a path/filename so you can choose
where and what to name the file at launch.
If left empty --scrot and -s will use $scrot_dir and
$scrot_name when saving the screenshot.
By default the script uses scrot as the screenshot program.
You can use the launch flag --scrot_cmd or the option $srot_cmd
to set the program to use to take the screenshot.
Wiki:
Added Customizing Info page which has info/examples about
the new printinfo function.
https://github.com/dylanaraps/fetch/wiki/Customizing-Info
