welcome.sh
A nice welcome script for Bash
This is a nice little script for your .bashrc that greets you on every launch, with some helpful (and customizable!) information.
My goal with this script is to keep it simple, just a single line that gives useful information when you start the terminal.
Features:
- Relatively fast
- Works across many distros (update checking support)
- Clean and simple
- Written entirely in Bash
Installing:
Via Curl
bash -c "$(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/G2-Games/welcome.sh/main/install.sh)"
Or wget
bash -c "$(wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/G2-Games/welcome.sh/main/install.sh -O -)"
It installs to ~/.welcome/welcome.sh, and adds a line to the bottom of ~/.bashrc
Run again to uninstall.
Manual Installation
To use it, download welcome.sh and place it in your home directory. Then add /home/$USER/welcome.sh to your .bashrc
Updating:
WIP
Currently you can update by uninstalling and reinstalling, but this wipes all settings. I am working on making a better way to do this.
Configs:
To configure settings, open welcome.sh in your text editor of choice and go to the bottom. There, you'll find a few settings:
Here, you can re-arrange the modules, and turn off and on flatpak and recharge notifications. I recommend leaving flatpak off as it makes startup incredibly slow.
I'm planning on making this config section a separate file later to make changing settings easier and updating easier.
TODO:
- Add easier way to install and update
- Fix issues across other distros
- Add new features?
