Archey3
Archey3 is a simple Python script that prints basic system information and ASCII art of the Arch Linux logo.
Starting
Archey3 can be run by typing:
$ archey3
This should produce an output similar to below.
+ OS: Arch Linux x86_64 # Hostname: Archie ### Kernel Release: 4.9.11-1-ARCH ##### Uptime: 0:32 ###### WM: None ; #####; DE: GNOME +##.##### Packages: 1034 +########## RAM: 1687 MB / 16045 MB #############; Processor Type: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz ###############+ $EDITOR: nano ####### ####### Root: 16G / 20G (80%) (ext4) .######; ;###;`". .#######; ;#####. #########. .########` ######' '###### ;#### ####; ##' '## #' `#
It can also be started automatically with each new shell session. To do this, append archey3
to a new line in your configuration file, including any options.
Configuration
Archey3's configuration file is stored at ~/.archey3.cfg
by default. However this can be adjusted using this command where CONFIG represents the file to use:
$ archey3 --config=CONFIG
Colors
Archey3 can display colors other than the default blue. To change colors, append the -c foo
flag, where "foo" represents the desired color. Supported colors are: black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, and white. For example, to display archey3 in red, type:
$ archey3 -c red
Editing the configuration file
A sample configuration file, with comments showing all of the possible options for configuration, is available in the examples page.
