Screenshots

Neofetch will now automatically find and use whatever screenshot tool is available on your system. The screenshot tool is no longer hardcoded and you don't have to edit your config file to specify what program to use.

On Haiku and macOS, Neofetch will use the built-in tools to take screenshots. On systems with an X server Neofetch will look for and use the following programs: scrot, maim, import (imagemagick), imlib2_grab and gnome-screenshot.

The config option scrot_cmd and the commandline flag --scrot_cmd are still there for those who want to use custom flags, programs or scripts to take screenshots.

• Automatically use whatever screenshot tool is available.
• Added screenshot support to macOS
• Added screenshot support to Haiku

Screenshot Upload

• [teknik.io] Fixed images not uploading with the right filetype.
• Changed default image upload host to teknik.io.
  • teknik doesn't compress images whereas imgur does.
  • You can change this back to imgur by using --image_host imgur or by editing your config file.
