### Example
Change wallpaper for all monitors in hyprland/hyprpaper set-up:
```sh
pyprpaper -m $(hyprctl -j monitors | jq -r '.[].name' | tr '\n' ' ') -- /path/to/wallpaper/directories
```
### My Hyprpaper/Pyprpaper setup
I am running hyprland/hyprpaper, if you are not
using hyprland things will defer depending on what
you are using. However `pyprpaper` will work on
any wayland compositor if you are using hyprpaper.
You can have an empty `hyprpaper.conf` setup
and just run `pyprpaper` in the `exec-once` in
`hyprland.conf`.
My current `hyprpaper.conf` config:
```
splash = off
```
and in `hyprland.conf` I have:
```
exec-once = pyprpaper -t 600 -m $(hyprctl -j monitors | jq -r '.[].name' | tr '\n' ' ') -- /path/to/directory(ies)
```
