This is a trivial utility to rotate the background images when I'm not looking. Specifically, this is done whenever my monitor falls asleep.
dpms.pl calls rot.pl whenever the monitor falls asleep. DPMS in X
doesn't trigger any events, so we just probe the state every minute.
rot.pl runs a random command from a file called commands
command.pl generates the appropriate command for a jpg for a screen
of my resolution (1600x1024). commands was generated by running
find ./ |xargs -n1 ./command.pl>commands, and then manually adjusting the
offsets for cropping.
Requires:
- perl
- The Perl X11::Protocol module
- The Perl X11::Protocol::Ext::DPMS extension
