* This script require 'Image Magick'. Install it before start lbginfo.sh
* Run lbginfo.sh from ordinary user, not root
* Tested on Kubuntu 22.04/24.04 (Dual display), Alt Linux 10 (KDE, MATE), Astra Linux 1.7 (FLY)
* Recommended to set DEFAULTWALLPAPER=/usr/share/WallPapers/default.jpg. Where place default.jpg image.

```

### Usage:
```
Launch lbginfo.sh without the option, then it will just update the current wallpaper

-r Resize image to primary display resolution
lbginfo.sh -r

-f Use custom file (Do not mix [-f] and [-d] options)
lbginfo.sh -f /some/file.jpg

-d Use custom directory (Do not mix [-f] and [-d] options)
lbginfo.sh -d /some/dir

In /some/dir you may place files like:
1024x768.jpg
1280x1024.jpg
1366x768.jpg
1600x1200.jpg
1920x1080.jpg
