✨ NAME ✨

rigrekt — it's a screen saver, bestie. that's the whole job. (this here is the rigrekt(6x) manual page, and yes she's iconic 💅)

🌊 SYNOPSIS 🌊

rigrekt [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual] [--window]
[--root] [--delay number] [--speed number] [--scale number] [--fps]

okay so basically you call her, you hand her a display and a vibe, and she does her thing 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Exploring a flooded structure.

that's it. that's the plot. she's down there in the water, wandering around a building that has absolutely no business being underwater, and honestly? it's giving liminal. main character energy fr fr 🌊🏚️

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --visual visual — picks which visual to use. the legal values are either the name of a visual class, or the id number of one specific visual (and you can write that number in decimal or hex, no judgement either way 💅).
  • --window — draws on a brand-new window. and guess what, bestie — this one is the default. she does this unless you tell her otherwise ✨
  • --root — draws on the root window instead. going full desktop takeover, no window, just vibes 👑
  • --delay number — how long to wait between frames, measured in microseconds. default is 20000, which is 0.02 seconds. so like, tiny little pause, per frame, every frame 🫶
  • --speed number — animation speed. 2.0 means twice as fast, 0.5 means half as fast. do with that information what you will, no cap ⚡
  • --scale number — resolution. legal range is 0.1 - 1.0. default is 1.0. (so 1.0 is the full-resolution girlie, and lower numbers are the crunchy pixelated version 💀)
  • --fps | --no-fps — whether to show a frames-per-second display at the bottom of the screen. --fps = yes show me the numbers. --no-fps = I said what I said, hide them 🙈

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

the environment variables she reads, because she's nosy (affectionate) 💜

  • DISPLAY — used to get the default host and display number.
  • XENVIRONMENT — used to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
  • XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW — the window ID to use with --root. 🪟
