Utilities shell script

This is a project i've worked on for the past year and a half, it started off as a tool for personal needs, but after adding setup tools, option selectors and a custom menu, the result is a very user friendly utility.
It includes a service manager for our alternative init systems and more!

Any suggestions are welcome, have fun!

Playing with it now.  I had a message about optional dependencies.  Good to know.  Will install some of them also.
TY for making this.

Glad you like it, enjoy!
About the gui mode not opening from terminal, did you chmod +x the script? It depends on that. i should add a check to do this automatically, or a workaround to execute with sh like you did.

Yeah. In gui file managers you just mark as executable, like with anything else
It makes me think of people packing elf binaries or scripts in .tar.xyz archives just to have the attributes already set, hehe

V5 coming soon with a disk space analyzer tool, i'll add a check to do chmod +x automatically.

yeah i forgot the file check, it's for the sudoers password bypass rule, it asks you in the gui, and it creates that file. The error is just cosmetic, i will patch it today.

also for the sudoers rule to check the immutable attribute, it's more "secure" (an overused word, i know)
