! To display a randomized slideshow of images, you can do something like this:
! default-n: "Slideshow" xv -root -rmode 5 -random -viewonly \
! -wloop -wait 30 $HOME/bitmaps/*.jpg \n\
!
-! or, if you prefer "xli" to "xv", like this: (but note that xli's "-delay"
-! option doesn't work in conjunction with "-onroot", so you need to add a
-! line for each image individually... "xv" is better in this respect.)

-! $HOME/bitmaps/pic1.jpg \n\

-squares, one of which is missing. I hate trying to solve those \

-This grabs an image of whatever is on your screen, and makes it melt. \
-You've no doubt seen this effect before, but no screensaver would \

-colorful visible. Warning, if the effect continues after the screen \
-saver is off, seek medical attention. Written by David Wald and \
-Vivek Khera. \

-A number of these screenhacks have the ability to take an image of \
-your desktop and manipulate it in some way. On SGI systems, these \
-programs are able to (at random) pull their source image from the \
-system's video input instead! This works nicely if you leave some \
-some random television station plugged in.
