[SOLVED] Two screenfetch questions

johnprogrammer · 01-04-2022, 04:40 PM

OS: Arch Linux in WSL 2, various Linux distributions.

I am using screenfetch to display OS information in the terminal.

See the attached image.

1. How can I make it, not display the Disk information, shown in the first OS information?

2. When I tested the -d argument with a wrong value, it displays the word Unix.

How can we make it display the word Unix, without using a wrong value in the -d argument?

Thank you a lot.

According to the source, the variable name is disk.

You can just suppress the error message with -E

Code:

screenfetch -Edx

This works in screenfetch 3.9.1, not sure if it would work with the newer git snapshots.

You also can display Tux with

Code:

screenfetch -LAx

where x may be any non-existent distro name (a literal x will do as well).
