lgi-wallpaper

Small, simple app built with Lua and GTK to set the desktop wallpaper. Depends on several weird things:

• LGI
• luash (or the original)
• luv (libunique bindings for lua)
• GTK3, Gio, GLib, and obviously gobject-introspection
• libgnome-desktop
• ImageMagicks identify and convert commands
• wmctrl (because Gdk over LGI crashes too much)

It uses libgnome-desktop and its thumbnailer service behind the scenes, and so far only shows JPEG and PNG images.

XFCE4

So far, the app only works for XFCE4, using xfconf-query via luash.

Awesomewm

Eventually, this will support awesomewm.

Gnome Shell

Eventually, this will support gnome-shell, because it's just very easy to add. Not because anyone will ever use it.
