# Sample usage
pcinfo "$@"

WHAT FOR

user@pc:~/.local/bin/$ sudo ./pcinfo -h

 Script collects data from different
 sources about the PC on which it is
 running and it's hardware, combine
 data in a single table, print this
 table to console or write to file.

 Usage 1 (default): ./pcinfo
 print result to console

 Usage 2: ./pcinfo /path/to/file
 verbose and print result to file.
 permissions will be set to 600

 -h, --help
 print this help message

Script is very useful

1. With conky app. Just save the result of the script to a file and parse this file from conky.conf. All hardware data is conveniently collected in one file. Which can be stored, for example, in RAM (tmpfs). You can also configure the script to automatically run at system startup so that the file is always up to date. This strategy allows you to reduce conky access to disk and resources, allows you to get useful data* without using superuser privileges and make the conky.conf file itself less overloaded.
2. With liveUSB to get quick and easy report about PC hardware. If you are in the repair and sales of computers, it will help you create a beautiful and quick description of the system for placement in sales ads. Just copy/paste.

* non critical data, like RAM vendor and etc. dmidecode need sudo for example.

HOW TO

Start script by root or sudo user. By default it will print information about your system to console.
