screenFetch – Bash information tool

screenFetch is a “Bash Screenshot Information Tool”.

This handy Bash script can be used to generate one of those nifty terminal theme information and ASCII distribution logos you see in everyone’s screenshots nowadays. It will auto-detect your distribution and display an ASCII version of that distribution’s logo and some valuable information to the right.

There are options to specify no ASCII art, colors, taking a screenshot upon displaying info, and even customizing the screenshot command! This script is very easy to add to and can easily be extended.

This is free and open source software.
