Version 2.0 is not supported!

A quick "getting started" guide, rewritten partially for 2.0.

strlx prints a message along with your system information, which can be default or custom.

"str" in strlx stands for "string" - the main point of the program.

strlx <string>

strlx will display your string in the information. If there is none parsed, a random (sometimes a bit odd) default will show.

Strings do not require quotes but using them if implementing into your shell, for example, is good practice.

There are 2 methods for installation - compiling manually, or grabbing the latest release from Releases.

Run chmod +x <the executable> to mark it as executable, if you cannot run it (ex [shell] - Killed).

You can install it properly by copying it to /usr/local/bin (sudo cp strlx /usr/local/bin)

strlx will automatically write a configuration file on first run and you can modify this config later.

Compilation works on Linux, GNU and OS X.

Remember to set CC to your compiler if you aren't using gcc and your compiler does not provide it.

sudo make install

to compile then add to /usr/local/bin. Add /usr/local/bin to PATH to ensure strlx can be found after.

strlx looks in ~/.config/strlx/conf, where ~ is the home directory.

The ASCII logo is set with "ascii-tux" or "ascii-apple".

The "reset" keyword only prints an ANSI reset (which clears any formatting) and is simply "\x1b[0m" in a printf. You can use this yourself.

Colors are defined before the option. Colors HAVE TO BE REPEATED for each item.

Valid colors are: white, black, dr (dark red, in some shells a bit lighter), red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple.

Valid items are: string, distro, hostname, shell, kernel, cpu, uptime, memory.

If you have any trouble, delete the configuration file and let strlx recreate it.
