Why would you ~~pipe~~ edit: redirect neofetch into your .bashrc?
so that everytime you launch a terminal, your neofetch data is displayed. Because wow, neofetch!!!
It doesn't really make sense, since the data would be outdated anyway if piped into .bashrc that way...
But .bashrc is executed, not displayed.
Maybe they meant to say
echo neofetch >> ~/.bashrc
.It won't work. It's a dangerous command because a single

destroys your.bashrc
. You may want eitherecho 'neofetch' >> .bashrc
orneofetch | sed -e 's:%:a:g' | sed -e "s:^\\(.*\\)$:printf '\1\\\\n':" >> .bashrc
or something of that kind.EDIT: tested out the latter command
true!! i meant
echo neofetch >> .bashrc
Who's the true noob now? Smh
(/s)
actually. i meant neofetch > bashrc, as in neofetch is better. checkmate
/s
