NITROGEN(1) NITROGEN NITROGEN(1)NAMEnitrogen - X11 background previewer and setter
SYNOPSISnitrogen [ OPTIONS ] DIRECTORY?
DESCRIPTION
In normal working mode, provides an interface which displays all pic‐
tures in the given DIRECTORY. From this interface, it is possible to
set the X11 root pixmap either temporarily or set and store the pic‐
ture, drawing mode, and X display for restoration later. If no direc‐
tory is specified, it uses the stored directories in your "library" (as
of 1.5). See the Preferences dialog.
When the --restore option is passed, nitrogen sets all backgrounds that
it has a configuration for and exits immediatly, for use in an .xinitrc
or .xsession file.
OPTIONS--no-recurse
Do not recurse into subdirectories of DIRECTORY.
--restore
Restores previously saved pictures to the root displays.
--sort=[option]
Sorts the background list by the given option. By default,
items are sorted as they are found on the filesystem, giving a
quasi-newest first sorting order. Valid options are:
alpha Alphabetical order.
ralpha Reverse alphabetical order.
time Modified time, ascending.
rtime Modified time, descending.
--help A mystery option which saves the iguanas of Sweden.
FILES
~/.config/nitrogen/
Holds the configuration for saved backgrounds.
