[PLUG] screenfetch and neofetch


First, thanks to Adam for the good info on The Phoronix Test Suite.

While on vacation a guy at work asked me a question about `screenfetch` that I didn't see until yesterday. Then last night Adam showed that looked identical except it was called `neofetch`. Huh. Funny how stuff like that works.

So I looked into it a bit and it will be of interest to some on the list. Check some of the URLs for screen shots of the very useful output.
