`ZSH-MORPHO`

Introduction

Terminal screen saver for Zshell. Implements morphogenesis and Mandelbrot images. Written in pure Zshell (possible thanks to floating point numbers and to zsh/mathfunc module). Supports running external commands, for example cmatrix.

Screen saver will start after configured time, in last terminal in which a command has been executed.

Video – view on asciinema. You can resize the video by pressing Ctrl-+ or Cmd-+.

Configuration

There are 4 zstyles:

zstyle ":morpho" screen-saver "zmorpho" # select screen saver "zmorpho"; available: zmorpho, zmandelbrot, zblank, pmorpho
                                        # this  can also be a command, e.g. "cmatrix"
zstyle ":morpho" arguments "-s"         # arguments given to screen saver program; -s - every key press ends
zstyle ":morpho" delay "290"            # 5 minutes before screen saver starts
zstyle ":morpho" check-interval "60"    # check every 1 minute if to run screen saver

To test screen savers run them directly from command line, e.g. issue "pmorpho".

Installation

The plugin is "standalone", which means that only sourcing it is needed. So to install, unpack zsh-morpho somewhere and add source {where-zsh-morpho-is}/zsh-morpho.plugin.zsh to zshrc.

If using a plugin manager, then ZI is recommended, but you can use any other too, and also install with Oh My Zsh (by copying directory to ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins).

ZI

Add zi load z-shell/zsh-morpho to .zshrc. The plugin will be loaded next time you start Zsh. To update issue zi update z-shell/zsh-morpho from command line.

Zgen

Add zgen load z-shell/zsh-morpho to .zshrc and issue a zgen reset (this assumes that there is a proper zgen save construct in .zshrc).

Antigen

Add antigen bundle z-shell/zsh-morpho to .zshrc. There also should be antigen apply.

Oh-My-Zsh

cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins
