<h3>Decoration</h3>
<p>If this option is chosen, you get Project M (a visualizer; Mod+V), cmatrix, asciiquarium, bash-pipes (terminal screensavers), screenfetch and neofetch (for posting on 4chan, duh), cli-visualizer and speedometer (for network speeds).</p>
<h3>Other programs you can individually select</h3>
<p>GIMP (image creator, editing program), Blender (video editor), the Libreoffice Suite (fully-featured equivalents of Word/Excel/Powerpoint, etc.), Emacs.</p>
<p>You can also get transmission, a torrent client, which by default, I have the terminal interface installed (Mod+F6).</p>
<p>There is also an option to install more complete fonts, giving you fonts for emojis, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and ancient languages.</p>
