pybgsetter - multi-backend wallpaper setter

You may want a minimal WM, but not set the wallpaper via CLI. Nitrogen is out of the question as it's bloat and bugged. So I found this, from an Arch user:

Install: just extract from the AUR tarball, and add this line in xinitrc (or respective autostart):

Code: Select all

sh ~/.bgrc
It's funny how we used to be able to do real stuff with rudimentary computers, but now we can't. -- ratcheer
