Hello,
Neofetch is a CLI system information tool written in BASH. Neofetch displays information about your system next to an image, your OS logo, or any ascii file of your choice. The main purpose of Neofetch is to be used in screenshots to show other users what OS/Distro you're running, what Theme/Icons you're using and etc.
Neofetch is highly customizable through the use of command-line flags or the user config file. There are over 50 config options to mess around with and there's the print_info() function and friends which let you add your own custom info.
Neofetch originally started as my own little system information script (that only supported Arch ) but after almost a year of constant development Neofetch has grown to support Linux, MacOS, iOS, BSD, Solaris, Android, Haiku, GNU Hurd, MINIX and Windows (Cygwin/Windows 10 Linux subsystem).
For those of you who are going to ask "What makes this different to Screenfetch?": I've started writing a wiki page about "Why Neofetch was created", "The problems with Screenfetch" and "How Neofetch / Screenfetch differ". The Wiki page is still a WIP but it should still answer the question above.

HI
regarding the: get_resolution() function linux sub-section code
---
if type -p xrandr >/dev/null; then
#do stuff
elif type -p xdpyinfo >/dev/null; then
#do stuff
fi
---
Under what circumstances would an Arch linux user end up with either/or on their system?
Why would one have "xdpyinfo" and another the "xrandr" package
I have xdpyinfo is it possible other Arch users have xrandr?
