NAME
vidwhacker - grab images and apply random filters to themSYNOPSIS
vidwhacker [-display host:display.screen] [-root] [-verbose] [-stdin] [-stdout] [-delay seconds] [-directory directory] [-fps]DESCRIPTION
The vidwhacker program grabs an image from disk, or from the system's video input, then applies random image filters to it, and displays the result. The vidwhacker program does not terminate until killed.It depends heavily on the various PBM tools (e.g., ppmrelief(1).)
Selection of random image files is done by running the xscreensaver-getimage-file(1) program. Capture of video frames (if requested) is done by running the xscreensaver-getimage-video(1) program. The options of whether to do video, and which directory to search for images, are specified in the ~/.xscreensaver file.
OPTIONS
vidwhacker accepts the following options:- -root
- Draw on the root window. This is the default.
- -verbose
- Print diagnostics.
- -stdin
- Instead of grabbing an image from disk or video, read an image to manipulate from stdin. This image must be in ppm(5) format. The program will still perform repeated random image transformations, but it will always use this one image as its starting point.
- -delay seconds
- How long to sleep between images. Default 5 seconds (the actual elapsed time is significantly longer, due to processing time.)
- -stdout
- Instead of displaying the image on a window or on the root, write the new image on stdout, and exit.
- -directory directory
- Use this directory instead of the imageDirectory specified in the ~/.xscreensaver file.
- -fps
- Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
ENVIRONMENT
- DISPLAY
- to get the default host and display number.
- XENVIRONMENT
- to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
BUGS
It's slow.TO DO
It might be interesting to rewrite this to use gimp(1) plugins instead of the pbm tools. It probably wouldn't be any faster, but there would be a wider variety of effects available.SEE ALSO
