fastfetch-cli/fastfetch 2.3.0

on GitHub

We are deprecating flags based config files (will be removed in v3.0.0). We suggest you migrate to json based config files.

Config related changes:

• The deprecated flag --gen-config conf is removed
• Flag --gen-config now does the same thing as --migrate-config, which can be used as config migration and default config file generation. Flag --migrate-config is removed
• Fastfetch now searches for config files in the order of fastfetch --list-config-paths, and won't load other config if one is found.
• The undocumented flag --load-user-config is removed. As an alternative, --config none can be used to disable loading config files.
• --config (previously named --load-config) is now supported for command line arguments only. If specified, other config files won't be loaded, which works like other programs.
• Config files will always be loaded before other command line flags being parsed. That is to say, command line flags will always override options defined in config files.
• the value of GPUType integrated contained a typo and was fixed. Existing config files may need to be updated.

Features:

• Support Oils and elvish shell version detection (Shell)
• Support Windows Server Core (Windows)
• Better ddcutil 2.x compatibility (Brightness, Linux)
• Add completion support for fish (natively) and nushell (via carapace-bin)
• Support nix in macOS (Packages, macOS)
• Print module description for --list-modules
• Support alacritty.toml (TerminalFont)
• Support board detection on macOS. It simplily prints machine model identifier as for now (Board, macOS)
• Add general method to query product name (Host, macOS)
• Use libdrm as a better fall back for detecting displays, which correctly detects current mode; supports refresh rate detection and maybe also faster than using /sys/class/drm (Display, Linux)
• Support physical disk size detection (DiskIO)
• Support physical disk name and type detection (DiskIO, FreeBSD)
