lxbgchanger (in short lxbgc)

INTRO

-----

Program to change the desktop wallpaper for a LXDE desktop with the 

PCManFM filemanager.

The PCManFM is a quite nice filemanager and desktop environment. 

But the functionality to switch the wallpaper after a user defined

time is still missing (maybe in the QT release?).

So I decide to write this small program as an exercise to myself in plain C. I

am still learning plain C so, there maybe many tweaks an experienced programmer

can found in this piece of software.

Have fun to optimize or simple use.

USAGE

-----

Type 'lxdbc -h' for help. Simple as is:

- add 'lxbgc' to your autostart of LXDE/Lubuntu

- use the command line parameter '-d' for your image directory

- optional use the command line parameter '-t' for the time in minutes between changes

E.g.:

lxbgc -d /home/USERNAME/Pictures/Wallpapers -t 15

DEPENDENCIES

------------

You must use the PCManFM for your desktop.
