Version Information

• Python Version: 3.6+ (due to use of dataclasses)
• pywin32 Version: Compatible with the latest version as of August 2024
• pyperclip Version: Compatible with the latest version as of August 2024

System Requirements

• Operating System: Windows (due to use of Win32 API)
• Architecture: Compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit systems

Notes

• This script is designed to run on Windows systems only, as it relies heavily on Windows-specific APIs and WMI queries.
• Administrative privileges may be required to access certain disk and partition information.
• The script uses a text-based user interface (TUI) implemented with the curses library.
• Clipboard functionality is provided through the pyperclip library.

Security Considerations

• The script accesses low-level system information, which may require elevated privileges.
• Care should be taken when distributing or running this script, as it has the capability to read sensitive system information.

Licensing

• The core Python libraries and win32 extensions are subject to their respective licenses.
• pyperclip is typically distributed under the BSD License.
• The custom code in this script should be licensed according to the project's requirements.
