HELP: Quick System Info (GUI)

QSI Journald

Displays a Quick System Info (QSI) report based on inxi and a few custom parameters for MX Linux.

The Quick System Info GUI application can display any log or report shown in the list (left pane) by clicking on an item.

Use the "Copy for forum" button at the bottom of the report display (right pane) to copy the report to the clipboard in a format suitable for directly pasting into a forum post, complete with code tags.
If a portion of text is seleted, only that portion is copied and encapsulated in code tags.

Use the "Save" button to save multiple selected reports into an archive file.

Use the "Save text" button to save the text from the report display to a text file.

If the user is running systemd as init (pid 1), then a Journald tab will be available. There are selection tools for filtering the journal report displayed.

Menus and Shortcut Keys

Right-clicking on a pane will trigger a pop-up menu, which can also be used to perform similar actions to the buttons.
