To-do

I don't really plan on developing these in the near future, but feel free to make a pull request.

Package amount: Fedora/dnf support

• This requires using dnf list installed | sed '1d' | wc -l, meaning a second pipe.

Configuration: A config file for things like color, boldness, etc.

• This would mean not having to pass a custom color as an argument. For now you could make a shell alias to something like jawsfetch -bc red.

Crates used

clap

This crate is used for argument parsing, as writing my own would've been very difficult.
