About foo-Wallpaper-Feh-Gif
This is just a loop script that sets a gif as a wallpaper. Supports transparency. Requires feh or xload or xwallpaper(uses less cpu).
! INCREASES CPU use
To run it
Download back4.sh and place your desired gif in the gif directory.
For ubuntu/xfce set prog=$select4 in back4.sh , You can set stretched style in desktop panel.
cd ~
chmod +x back4.sh
./back4.sh 0.010 gif/pixel.gif &
#./back4 speed pathToGif &
select between feh,xload,xwallpaper,ubuntu-xfce
edit back4.sh, set prog=$select2 for xwallpaper, or select4 for ubuntu-xfce
autostart with i3, in i3 config :
exec_always --no-startup-id killall back4.sh
exec_always --no-startup-id $HOME/back4.sh 0.03 Downloads/beautycity.gif
To stop it
killall back4.sh
Alternatively
You can add the speed as a suffix to your desired gif.
ls gif/pixel.gif-0.010
./back4.sh gif/pixel.gif-0.010 &
To clean cache
rm -rf /tmp/back4
I search a lighter alternative than feh in cpu ress
