jonas1ara/Fitch

This system is a cross-platform command-line utility for displaying detailed system information, supporting Linux, Windows, and WSL. It presents data such as distribution logos, GPU status, battery levels, and terminal details using rich console output and configurable color schemes. The application is built on .NET 8 and allows users to customize the display mode and appearance via a configuration file.

This release introduces a major fork of the original Fitch utility, expanding it from a Linux-only tool to a cross-platform system information display for Linux, Windows, and WSL. The application now targets .NET 8 (upgraded from .NET 7) and features new capabilities including GPU detection (using lspci on Linux), battery status reporting, and terminal emulator identification. Users can now choose between a new 'Logo Mode' (displaying distribution PNG logos) and the original 'DistroName Mode' (Figlet text). The project structure has been refactored into separate Lib, Cli, and Test projects, and installation is streamlined via new Setup.sh and Setup.ps1 scripts that handle global tool installation.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

The CLI application now has a defined entry point in Program.fs that invokes the DisplayInfo module to show information (including distro logos) and explicitly resets the console color afterwards to ensure clean terminal output.

Cli · high confidence

The library now supports two display modes: 'logo' (default), which shows the distribution logo alongside system info using distro-specific colors (e.g., Fedora blue, Ubuntu orange), and 'distroname', which renders the distribution name as a Figlet header with user-configurable label and header colors. Users can customize these settings via a TOML configuration file at \~/.config/fitch/.fitch, controlling display mode, logo position (left/right), and colors for the distroname mode. The system info display also now includes GPU, battery, terminal, and shell information where available.

Lib · high confidence

Added a new test project in the Test directory to verify core functionality. The suite includes tests for loading distribution logos (specifically verifying that the 'linux' logo loads successfully) and retrieving system information. The test project is configured using Paket and references xUnit, Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk, and coverlet.collector for execution and coverage.

Test · high confidence

The project is initialized as a .NET 8 solution using Paket for dependency resolution. The structure includes a CLI executable, a core library, and a test project. Key dependencies added include Spectre.Console and Spectre.Console.ImageSharp for rich terminal output and image rendering, ByteSize for data size formatting, and xUnit with Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk for testing. The project targets net8.0 and is configured as a packable tool.
