Thank you I'm glad you like it.

I could make it much longer with many more options and dialogues, but I wouldn't even use it myself at that point lol. I like short and simple scripts that work with minimum user effort. This way anyone can change it to their liking.

My main desktop/production machine is Artix Runit but I have FreeBSD installed on my thinkpad x200 and I use it on a daily basis, mostly fot my C lessons and practices.

I like the minimalism of FreeBSD and that it made me learn many of the basics of UNIX. Tbh I don't see myself using FreeBSD as my main machine since many of the things I need are not ported to FreeBSD yet. Maybe once I know how to port stuff I can make those for myself but for now FreeBSD remains on my thinkpad rather than on my HP.

Sorry for the delay, I never noticed the new replies button, as I mostly browse on Gemini.

I meant the shortness in a 100% positive way, the fact that it's useful, yet fully readable and understandable within a reasonable amount of time before one runs it, put a smile on my face.

And yeah I can't really fully use FreeBSD right now either sadly, but I sure love that it exists, sometimes watch its progress and try to learn a thing or two from them, because this system is just plain elegant.

Perhaps for some servers one day.
