Did you see the library of viz? https://github.com/attogram/bash-screensavers/blob/main/libr...
My favourite API: lov_die_with_honor()
A friend of mine fancied the following when making an infinite loop in C:
#define MONEY 1
#define POWER 1
while (MONEY == POWER)
{
...
}(thought I'd share that since its raison d'être was to put Asciiquarium there :))
OLEDs can still suffer from burn-in, but it's also just easier to have them... turn off...
Do you know if this supports any DE (or no DE)? Or is it strictly for KDE Plasma?
When it comes to wallpapers, you could do a similar trick on X11 DEs by putting it onto the root window (with a tool like xwinwrap) and on Wayland DEs that support layer-shell (with a tool like windowtolayer). I'm not aware of screen lockers that do something like that, but you could always write your own one.
Yeah, I've used xwinwrap before, but am lost on Wayland. I'll look into windowtolayer, thanks. I'd rather not have to write this myself...
Also, found one of the easter eggs!

First feature request: allow disabling all the `tput setab 0` calls throughout the codebase. This may make screensavers look weird on white terminals but should improve them for anyone using non-black-but-dark terminal themes.
