    Modify the prompt text: I installed Starship to make a custom prompt that works in a few different shells. It's got it's own config with a wide array of options to customize the text in every conceivable way. I use it to add git info, low battery indication, and package and versioning info for some languages.

    Bat

    A cat(1) clone with wings.
    You can install command-line applications if you want to augment the appearance of some standard applications. You can use lsd or exa instead of ls. You can use bat instead of cat.

  3. Fancier version of Screenfetch that displays colors and supports more platforms.
    I noticed that some people use neofetch to flash their specs when they open a terminal. It's kind of badge of honour for some Linux enthusiasts.

    The art is colored based on your terminal color scheme. Here are some examples side-by-side using different themes: the top-left theme is Dracula, the top-right is Solarized, the other two are just me playing around with colors - maybe I'm the first one to make an ultra high contrast Mario! 🤣I think the output has a different personality depending on your color scheme.
