I was just thinking that given osx desktop background already has a feature to cycle through a directory of images, if you have imagemagick and curl then to do something that generates backgrounds from online MOTD services could be done in one line of bash.
- atjonasnielsen 13y agoThat sounds like a fun experiment :) I can confirm that people are willing to pay for simple apps that has a positive impact on their life.
- bemmu 13y agoHow would you solve choosing the right font size though? It should be such that the longest line perfectly fits the width.
- lotsofmangos 13y agogenerate an imagemagick text label at a certain font size, then pipe it to identify -size , pull the width out of that and then use the result to calculate the required font size which you then use in a second textlabel edit - or just generate a large text label to start with, then scale it to whatever is required
