NAME
       Termsaver - A simple text-based terminal screensaver


SYNTAX
       termsaver [SCREEN] [OPTIONS]


DESCRIPTION
       Termsaver  is  a simple alternative for simulating command-line based screensavers right on the terminal,
       in text-based format.

       To start the screensaver, execute Termsaver command with proper options as described in detail below, and
       to  close  it, just use the standard Ctrl+C to interrupt it (or close the terminal window if you are on a
       desktop environment and no longer need it).


SCREEN
       The Termsaver application, to work properly, requires a screen as argument, which represents the name  of
       the  screensaver  to  be  loaded.  Each  screen,  in  turn,  will have its own set of optional arguments,
       documented in its help option.

       Here follows a list of currently available screens (note that this information might become  outdated  if
       updates  are  not  fully  documented  here,  so  always  rely  on  the help option to display all screens
       available):
