MACCHINA(1) General Commands Manual MACCHINA(1)

macchina - A system information frontend, with an (unhealthy) emphasis on performance.

macchina [FLAGS]

-d, --doctor

Checks the system for failures.

-e, --export-config

Prints a template configuration file to stdout.

-c, --config=FILE

Specify a custom path to a configuration file.

This is helpful in cases where macchina fails to parse the configuration file from the default path, i.e. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/macchina/macchina.toml.

-l, --list-themes

Lists all available themes.

Themes are TOML files which must be placed in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/macchina/themes. Whatever this flag returns to the console can be used with the --theme flag.

-t, --theme=THEME

Specify the name of the theme to use, i.e. its basename and without the ".toml" extension.

You should verify whether macchina was able to find your theme with --list-themes.

-i, --interface=IF_NAME

Specify the network interface for the LocalIP readout, e.g. "wlan0", "eth0".

-s, --current-shell

Toggles between the current shell, i.e. the parent of the terminal emulator, or the default one.

-C, --logical-cores

Toggles between logical and physical cores for the Processor readout.

-K, --long-kernel
