For those that may spend many hours each day working in the terminal, staring at a black screen can be an isolating experience. I created motor for myself because I am one of those people and time lapse footage of outer space makes me happy. \n\n### Quickstart:\n1. install: `brew tap gwolf3/craft` \u0026 `brew cask install moter`  \n\n2. setup: [permissions](#permissions) (**required** or will not work properly) \n\n3. run: `moter start ` / `moter stop`  \n\n\n### How should I use this?  \n\n#### Additional Commands\n\nGet help: `moter --help` /  `moter \u003ccommand\u003e --help`\n\nGet version: `moter --version`\n\n\n#### Customization\n\nSet a new default background video: `export MOTER_DEFAULT=\u003cpath/url\u003e` (this will play on `start`) \n\nExperiment with new videos: `moter start -v \u003cpath/url\u003e`  \n\n***(Hint: please be sure to use absolute paths \u0026 include 'http/https' scheme for urls)***\n\nRun in desktop mode (disable terminal): `moter start --desktop-only`\n\nDesktop mode can also be enabled by default: `export MOTER_DESKTOP_ONLY=True`\n\n#### Formats\nMotor uses VLC media player behind the scenes, so any [supported format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLC_media_player#Input_formats) will work here too. You can even use a URL (youtube,etc). I also included a couple samples to get you started. \n\n\n#### \u003ca name=\"permissions\"\u003e\u003c/a\u003ePermissions \n\nMoter requires accessibily access of the following:\n\n- Terminal _(/Application/Terminal.app)_\n- iTerm _(/Application/iTerm.app)_\n- Spectacle _(/Applications/Spectacle.app)_\n- System Events _(/System/Library/CoreServices/System\\ Events.app)_\n\n\u003cimg src=\"./assets/instr-320.gif\" alt=\"instr.gif\" style=\"width:210px;height:160px\"/\u003e \n\n***(Hint: if you cannot find any items here, you may need to search and add them with the `+` button)***\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgwolf3%2Fmoter","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fgwolf3%2Fmoter","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgwolf3%2Fmoter/lists"}
