The pfetch command is not a standard command on most operating systems. However, it is a popular command-line tool found in Linux distributions, specifically designed to display system information in a concise and aesthetically pleasing way.

When executed, pfetch gathers various system details and then presents them in a formatted output. It typically shows information such as the operating system name, kernel version, CPU model, CPU frequency, memory usage, disk usage, uptime, and even the ASCII art of the system's logo.

The purpose of pfetch is to provide users with a quick overview of their system's specifications and status without requiring them to navigate through multiple commands or system tools. It can be helpful for system administrators, power users, or people who simply want to know more about their Linux system with just a single command.
