PAPERVIEW

A high performance animated desktop background setter for X11 that won't set your CPU on fire, drain your laptop battery, or lower ya vidya game FPS.

Now imagine the above desktop background, moving, JUST LIKE THIS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZTiA885bWM

Running on a Thinkpad X230 from 2012 at 1920x1080 and 60fps:

intel_gpu_time ./paperview city 3

user: 1.904135s, sys: 0.357277s, elapsed: 100.458648s, CPU: 2.3%, GPU: 11.7%

Build

pacman -S sdl2

make

Use

Command line:
    ./paperview FOLDER SPEED

For example:
    ./paperview scenes/train 5

A lower SPEED number will result in a faster frame rate.

Only BITMAP files are supported.
