ArchLer (Archlinux instalLer)

Hi,

These days i m installing ArchLinux a lot of times, and a big problem is the time (as well as my memory )
I looked for a solution with no luck, so i created my solution

It's name is ArchLer.
https://github.com/kylon/ArchLer

This simple script will help you to install ArchLinux quickly.

I wrote this to install Arch on my pcs, so it lacks some things like UEFI, nvidia drivers, or the proxy configuration and more, because my pcs don't need these packages/configurations (and honestly, i don't know how to use them, yet)

ArchLer is simple:

The first option (i) will install Arch
The second option (s) will take care of the first configuration (in arch-chroot)
The third option (c) is the final stage where you install packages/configurations on your newly installed OS

The third option (c) has the abolity to load an external script named custom.sh where you can add any command you need to install your preferred packages and configurations ecc...

The aim of this feature is to create a collection of all the custom.sh written by you (the community) and make it available to everyone who needs it:
example:
A custom.sh could install and configure an xfce4 DE ready to work
A custom.sh could install and configure a kde5 DE ready to work
and many more

*At the moment you will be able to install a basic openbox or xfce4 through ArchLer. If you need a different DE, skip that step.

Suggestions or requests are accepted

Run it through shellcheck.net, there's standard errors like wrong quoting, sudo redirection, and others.
