iTerm2 Background Changer

This program uses iTerm2 Python API to (randomly) change the image background of your terminal with a simple command.

    python change_background.py
    python remove_background.py

Or if you want to run as executable

    # Make the file executable with
    chmod +x change_background.py
    chmod +x remove_background.py
    # Execute with
    ./change_background.py
    ./remove_background.py

Arguments

    python change_background.py path_to_dir
    python change_background.py path_to_file

Currently the program only reads the first argument it's given.
It can be a specific file or folder.

In case it's a folder, the program will choose a random image! That's the fun part 😉

The default value for the directory is imgs/
(includes some chill lofi anime wallpapers too)

TODOS / Limitations

  • Only pick image files. Currently the program will read and pick a random file from the passed directory.
