```powershell
scoop install winfetch
```

--------------------------------

### Install Winfetch using Chocolatey

### Configure Custom Package Managers

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Configuration

To display packages from custom package managers, add their names to the `$CustomPkgs` array and create a corresponding `info_pkgs_<name>` function that returns the package count. This example configures 'cargo'.

```powershell
$CustomPkgs = @("cargo")
function info_pkg_cargo {
    return (cargo install --list | Where-Object {$_ -like "*:`}).Length
}
```

--------------------------------

### Disable Information Field Example

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Configuration

To disable an information field, add a '#' character at the beginning of the line in the configuration file.

```powershell
  "disk"              # ENABLED
# "battery"           # DISABLED
```

--------------------------------

### Add Custom Info Segment Function

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Configuration

Define a function prefixed with 'info_' to create a custom info segment. The function must return a hashtable with 'title' and 'content' properties. This example shows how to add a 'Time' segment.

```powershell
function info_custom_time {
    return @{
        title = "Time"
        content = (Get-Date)
    }
}

@(
    ...
    "motherboard"
    "custom_time"  # use custom info line
    "uptime"
    ... 
)
```

--------------------------------

### Default Winfetch Configuration File

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Configuration

This is the structure of the default configuration file. Uncomment lines to enable specific features or customize settings like image display, logo, and info segments.

```powershell
# ===== WINFETCH CONFIGURATION =====

# $image = "~/winfetch.png"

# Set the version of Windows to derive the logo from.
# $logo = "Windows 10"

# Specify width for image/logo
# $imgwidth = 24

# Specify minimum alpha value for image pixels to be visible
# $alphathreshold = 50

# Custom ASCII Art
# This should be an array of strings, with positive
# height and width equal to $imgwidth defined above.
# $CustomAscii = @(
#     "⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣦⠀ ⠀"
#     "⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣶⣶⣾⣷⣶⣆⠸⣿⣿⡟⠀ ⠀"
#     "⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣷⡈⠻⠿⠟⠻⠿⢿⣷⣤⣤⣄⠀⠀ ⠀"

# Make the logo blink
# $blink = $true

# Display all built-in info segments.
# $all = $true

# Add a custom info line
# function info_custom_time {
#     return @{
#         title = "Time"
#         content = (Get-Date)
#     }
# }

# Configure which disks are shown
# $ShowDisks = @("C:", "D:")
# Show all available disks
# $ShowDisks = @("*")

# Configure which package managers are shown
# disabling unused ones will improve speed
# $ShowPkgs = @("winget", "scoop", "choco")

# Use the following option to specify custom package managers.
# Create a function with that name as suffix, and which returns
# the number of packages. Two examples are shown here:
# $CustomPkgs = @("cargo", "just-install")
# function info_pkg_cargo {
#     return (cargo install --list | Where-Object {$_ -like "*:").Length
# }
# function info_pkg_just-install {
#     return (just-install list).Length
# }

# Configure how to show info for levels
# Default is for text only.
# 'bar' is for bar only.
# 'textbar' is for text + bar.
# 'bartext' is for bar + text.
# $cpustyle = 'bar'
# $memorystyle = 'textbar'
# $diskstyle = 'bartext'
# $batterystyle = 'bartext'


# Remove the '#' from any of the lines in
# the following to **enable** their output.

@(
    "title"
    "dashes"
    "os"
    "computer"
    "kernel"
    "motherboard"
    # "custom_time"  # use custom info line

### Benchmark Command for Winfetch and Neofetch

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Winfetch-vs-Neofetch

This command uses hyperfine to benchmark the execution time of Neofetch and Winfetch. It runs 10 iterations with a 3-second warm-up period for each command.

```bash
❯ hyperfine -w 3 "neofetch" "powershell -file .\winfetch.ps1"
```

--------------------------------

### Download development version of Winfetch

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Installation

Use PowerShell's Invoke-WebRequest to download the development version of the winfetch.ps1 script and save it to a specified path.

```powershell
# download development version
Invoke-WebRequest "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lptstr/winfetch/master/winfetch.ps1" -OutFile ~\.local\bin\winfetch.ps1 -UseBasicParsing
```

--------------------------------

### Generate Default Configuration

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Configuration

Use this command to generate the default configuration file if it does not exist or to reset your configuration to default.

```powershell
winfetch -genconf
```

--------------------------------

### Move winfetch.ps1 to PATH

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Installation

Move the winfetch.ps1 script to a directory included in your system's PATH for easy execution.

```bash
$ mv .\winfetch.ps1 ~\.local\bin\
```

--------------------------------

### Execute Winfetch directly from URL

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Installation

Execute the winfetch script directly from its URL using PowerShell without saving it to disk. This downloads the content, removes the first character (likely a BOM), and pipes it to Invoke-Expression.

```powershell
(Invoke-WebRequest "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lptstr/winfetch/master/winfetch.ps1" -UseBasicParsing).Content.Remove(0,1) | Invoke-Expression
```

--------------------------------

### Download specific version of Winfetch

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Installation

Use PowerShell's Invoke-WebRequest to download a specific version of the winfetch.ps1 script and save it to a specified path.

```powershell
# download a specific version
Invoke-WebRequest "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lptstr/winfetch/v2.0.0/winfetch.ps1" -OutFile ~\.local\bin\winfetch.ps1 -UseBasicParsing
```

--------------------------------

### Reset Git repository to latest release

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/Installation

After cloning, navigate to the repository directory and reset it to the latest release tag.

```bash
cd winfetch
git reset --hard v0.0.0
```

--------------------------------

### Enable ANSI Colors in Windows Registry

Source: https://github.com/lptstr/winfetch/wiki/ANSI-Colors

```reg
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console]
"VirtualTerminalLevel"=dword:00000001
```
