add show_package_total option #2212

Closed PauloGDPeixoto closed 2 years ago

PauloGDPeixoto commented 2 years ago

Description

I found that the package count was degrading the performance of neofetch in my machines, so I added a parameter to optionally disable this particular output.

Features

Add --show_package_total flag to enable/disable the package count display in neofetch.

This feature already exists in neofetch. You can use --disable <infoname> to disable the detection of a specific item. In this case, you can use --disable packages

You can also turn off package manager detection by editing the ~/.config/neofetch/config.conf (specifically, comment out the info "Packages" packages line)
