NAME

       variety - open-source wallpaper changer for Linux

SYNOPSIS

       variety [options] [files or urls]

DESCRIPTION

       Variety  is an open-source wallpaper changer, downloader, and manager for Linux. It supports a variety of
       sources  for  wallpapers,  including  local  files,  online  services  such   as   Flickr,   Wallbase.cc,
       Wallpapers.net, NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day, Desktoppr.co, and media RSS feeds (Picasa, deviantART,
       etc.).

NOTES

       Passing local files will add them to Variety's queue.  Passing remote URLs will make Variety  fetch  them
       to Fetched folder and place them in the queue.
