Top 15 Shell Desktop Projects

  • x11docker

    Project mention: [Linuxserver/Calibre] Multiple error log messages: <dbus-core: error connecting to system bus> | /r/unRAID | 2023-02-27

  • screenFetch

    Fetches system/theme information in terminal for Linux desktop screenshots.

    Project mention: screenfetch broken, unsure if im just missing dependencies or if it just doesn't work on my system [more info in comments] | /r/MacOS | 2022-06-12

    For all the people being super rude to the asker, 20s of googling shows you that (a) this script is supposed to work on MacOS, and (b) there was a bug that caused this exact problem and is fixed, but there has been no release of the utility since the fix (so I imagine it's not fixed in macports/homebrew).
