neofetch: Hide/Show OS architecture.
$ neofetch --os_arch ${select}
try on your machine

The command "neofetch --os_arch ${select}" is a command-line instruction that uses the neofetch utility to display system information, specifically the operating system architecture.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "neofetch" is the command itself, which invokes the neofetch utility. Neofetch is a command-line tool that displays hardware and software information about a system in a visually appealing way.

  • "--os_arch" is an option or flag used by neofetch to specify that you want to display the operating system architecture information. The "--" in front of "os_arch" indicates that it is an option/flag rather than a regular argument.

  • "${select}" is a placeholder or variable that needs to be replaced with an actual value. In this case, it is used to indicate that you need to provide an argument that specifies the particular operating system you want to display the architecture of.

So, when you run this command, you need to replace "${select}" with the specific operating system you want to get the architecture information for. For example, if you want to display the architecture for Linux, you would replace "${select}" with "Linux" like this: "neofetch --os_arch Linux".

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
