## Why Should I Use This?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Eh, you don’t have to. I was looking for a way to change my wallpaper at set
|
||||||
|
intervals that
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* supported multi-monitor setups properly,
|
||||||
|
* didn’t reinvent the wallpaper wheel, instead used `swaybg` in the background,
|
||||||
|
* integrated nicely with systemd (which I use to run _all_ my desktop related
|
||||||
|
things) and
|
||||||
|
* just worked.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
That didn’t seem to exist, so I made it. And since I’m _probably_ not the only
|
||||||
|
one looking for it, here it is. Have fun!

## Known Issues
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since I have hacked this in a couple h from concept to “eh, works well enough”,
|
||||||
|
it is not very resilient. You mess up the timer/service, you have syntax errors
|
||||||
|
in your configuration file … it will just die instead of spawning a `swaybg`
|
||||||
|
process.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
On the plus side, you’ll notice when it doesn’t work. Since, you know, you don’t
|
||||||
|
get your wallpapers.
