Configuration Options

Configuration of termDash can be done by opening the termDashCFG.py file in a graphical text editor, or a terminal text editor, such as nano or vim.

StatusBar_CustomText

The variable StatusBar_CustomText referrs to the custom text on the status bar, the 3rd part of the status bar. By default it is set to

StatusBar_CustomText=datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%A %d %B %Y")

And this will output the date and year, for example Wednesday 24 November 2021. You can change this formatting by taking a look at the valid strftime strings, which you can find on the Python strftime Cheatsheet.

SplashText

This variable referrs to the text displayed at the top of termDash, and by default it is set to

SplashText = "termDash from Kimitzuni"

This can be anything, you can even make it the same as the StatusBar_CustomText Variable, simply by doing this

SplashText = StatusBar_CustomText

Package Manager Settings

The next 6 variables in the config file all refer to package management, and by default, they are set to Debian/Ubuntu defaults - The apt Package Manager

PackageManager="apt"
InstallSyntax="install"
UpdateSyntax="update"
UpgradeSyntax="upgrade"
SearchSyntax="search"
RemoveSyntax="remove"

However, if you are using, say Manjaro Linux (or any other Arch Linux based distribution), you should set them to this:

PackageManager="pacman"
InstallSyntax="-S"
UpdateSyntax="-Sy"
UpgradeSyntax="-Syu"
SearchSyntax="-Ss"
RemoveSyntax="-Runs"

Skip_ShellReturnText

This variable is a bool, meaning it can either be True or False. When set to False, and you select the [S] Run the Shell option, you will get a handy little piece of text telling you how to exit back to termDash

To return to termDash, type 'exit' or press CTRL + D
