rxvt-unicode-9.05 + libAfterImage-1.18 + AfterStep-2.2.8

#1 Post by big_bass »

what is rxvt unicode
http://pod.tst.eu/http://cvs.schmorp.de ... rxvt.1.pod


besides all the options provided in the above link
you can also have a color console with any image you want
and use it with a window manager

SECTION 1

but for now just with the packages below


http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/big_bass/u ... e-9.05.pet
-----------------------------------------------------------

you have a image powered X console

a simple command like
urxvt -pixmap /your image path and file goes here


Rxvt-Unicode and libAfterImage (libAI)
http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/big_bass/l ... e-1.18.pet
------------------------------------------------------------

While not a requirement to run Rxvt-Unicode, libAfterImage adds additional features and performance; libAI support is enabled as default with the Rxvt-Unicode distribution.

Starting with Rxvt-Unicode version 8.3, libAfterImage (either as a stand-alone image manipulation library, or as a library provided by the AfterStep window manager) can be utilized for:

* pseudo-transparency
* loading background images
* blending images over the root background
* dynamic scaling
* background image bluring

Supported image formats include: BMP, GIF, ICO, JPG, PNG, SVG, TGA, TIFF, XPM, XCF, and AfterStep's XML image script.





Afterstep
http://www.puppylinux.ca/tpp/big_bass/A ... -2.2.8.pet
----------------------------------------------------------

that gives you many options to really customize


on this official site I found it missing info so the below link is better
http://www.afterstep.org/aterm.php
----------------------------------------------------

this is better
http://wiki.afterstep.org/index.php?tit ... Step_Menus
----------------------------------------------------

over on the chat site for AfterStep
they told me to use rvxt-unicode instead of aterm I compiled them both

and slackware rvxt-unicode wasnt compiled with the image option or AfterStep options so I made my own it has all the bells and whistles



ohhh just a peek at my console its default you could change it if you want
and see the options I compiled with
