This may look strange for some users, and it is also caused by misconfiguration or missing fonts. Braille fonts rendering as a block of dots In either case, you may need to install a specific font and configure your terminal to use it. For example, installing UBraille and ensuring your terminal uses it should work.

Fork the repository first and make changes there.

Open a discussion otherwise (e.g. asking a question). Opening an issue Bug reports When filing a bug report, please use the bug report template and fill in as much as you can. It is incredibly difficult for a maintainer to fix a bug when it cannot be reproduced, and giving as much detail as possible generally helps to make it easier to reproduce the problem! Feature requests Please use the feature request template and fill it out. Remember to give details about what the feature is along with why you think this suggestion will be useful. Also please check whether or not an existing issue has covered your specific feature request! Pull requests The expected workflow for a pull request is: Fork the project. Make your changes. Make any documentation changes if necessary - if you add a new feature, it'll probably need documentation changes. See here for tips on documentation.

Here's some info on how one can help with package distribution and bottom. Pre-built binaries The latest stable release can be found here , where you can find pre-built binaries in either a tar.gz or zip format. Binaries here also include automatically generated shell completion files for zsh, bash, fish, and Powershell, which you may want to also install during the packaging process. You can also find a nightly build in the releases page , built every day at 00:00 UTC off of the master branch. Building manually If you want to manually build bottom rather than distributing a pre-built binary, you'll need the most recent version of stable Rust, which you can get with: rustup update stable You'll then want to build with: cargo build --release --locked Completion files are automatically generated during this process, and are located in the directory target/release/build/bottom-<gibberish>/out . Note there may be multiple folders that look like target/release/build/bottom-<gibberish> . To programmatically determine which is the right folder, you might want to use something like: $( ls target/release/build/bottom-*/out/btm.bash | head -n1 | xargs dirname ) You may find the Arch package install script template useful as a reference. Adding an installation source Once you've finished your installation source, if you want to mention it in the main bottom repo, fork the repo and add the installation method and any details to the README.md file under the Installation section.
