paleofetch-mac-prettier 🎀

This is a fork of paleofetch-mac

I have added some aesthetic changes to make it look like my old neofetch config

Few comments from the previous readme 📰

A rewrite of neofetch started by ss7m for linux. Not much code was left, but the logic is similar.

Why use paleofetch-mac-prettier over neofetch?

It is fast, and aesthetic out of the box ⚡

Installation instructions 🔧

It is mainly intended for mac you only need to have make installed pretty much

Requirements

• Install one of the Nerd Fonts if you haven't already

• To install the same font i use:

  brew install font-inconsolata-lgc-nerd-font

  Then set that as your terminal font

Step by step instruction

Recaching

Paleofetch uses caching to run faster. To recache data run paleofetch -r

You can set your TERM_PROGRAM variable in your environment variables.

For example you can fix kitty by adding export TERM_PROGRAM="kitty"

This is developed on M1 arm64. It should work on x86_64, if not make an issue. No support for powerpc, but maybe will add it.

FAQ

Q: Do you really run neofetch every time you open a terminal?

ss7m: Yes, I like the way it looks and like that it causes my prompt to start midway down the screen. I do acknowledge that the information it presents is not actually useful.

DB: Yea, me too that's why I forked it.
