Missing packages
The program tell me i have 39 unfree, but only 4 are shown in the table
$ python main.py -h
usage: main.py [-h] [-f] [-r] [-s | -a]
Find proprietary packages
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f, --full Print every package not just nonfree
-r, --reverse Reverse the sort
-s, --status Sort the table by the status column
-a, --alternative Sort the table by the alternative column
;)
I have 39 NON free, and he is printing only 5, i don-t see anything helpful in that help screen
according to your screenshot you have 39 proprietary packages from this 5 are nonfree. There are several other categories like "uses-nonfree" or semifree. Use the -f flag to print every one of them
ah, maybe this could maked a bit more clear? maybe tell "x are non free, Y are semifree" etc.. I the "Print every package not just nonfree " also to me sound like is going to print all INSTALLED packages.
I realized aside from "Status" (that by default is ALL non-free) there is no indication there are multiple category :/
silly me expecting to find a reference in the program itself, you know just in case i install it from AUR :) Also, how do i know "explanation of terms" can be used as argument? even the output example shown is full but it is not shown the command used, so user does not know that i s inteeed the "full" list.
Just try to make the life easyer for other idiot like me, ok?

Why isn't the output of main.py --full the default? I think making main.py --full the default and adding flags for limiting the information, rather than expanding it, would make more sense. For example, --nonfree, --semifree, and --usesnonfree would output only their respective groups of packages while running main.py without any flags would output all three groups by default.
