I was reading an interesting article the other day about Ken Thompson. One of the creators of UNIX. The thing that struck me was he did not always have the commands he wanted, so started creating his own. Grep is one example of a command he created, something I use often in a terminal. Ok … Create your own commands….
Was getting a little bored with overall look of GreenBANG so decided to freshen it up a bit. New wallpaper, theme and given conky a bit of a lift. Will get iso image uploaded tomorrow morning. So GreenBANG now looks like this: Rofi has also changed. Toned down colours for a softer look. Hopefully makes … Time for a change of scene..
Hello, GreenBANG Linux Community! I hope this message finds you well.

Sourceforge will remain as ArchBang as it would only confuse new users and old … Concerns about change of name….
Hey folks, I’ve been doing some thinking (dangerous, I know 😉). ArchBang has carried me—and hopefully you—through more than a decade of lightweight, no-nonsense Linux goodness. But the times, they are a-changin’, and I’d like the distro to keep growing without bumping into trademark trip-wires or artificial walls. Why even consider a new name?
