HPR4184: Use GKRellM, wget and ImageMagick for a live slideshow
This segment is about image magic and the GK Relim system monitor and
highway web cameras.
The
British Columbia HighwayCams website allows you to view highway
conditions, traffic, and weather information at a glance.
GNU Wget is a free
software package for retrieving files using HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS,
the most widely used Internet protocols. It is a non-interactive
commandline tool, so it may easily be called from scripts, cron jobs,
terminals without X-Windows support, etc.
ImageMagick is a free,
open-source software suite, used for editing and manipulating digital
images. It can be used to create, edit, compose, or convert bitmap
images, and supports a wide range of file formats, including JPEG, PNG,
GIF, TIFF, and Ultra HDR.
GKrellM is a single process
stack of system monitors which supports applying themes to match its
appearance to your window manager, Gtk, or any other theme.
Here is how the thumbnails and my own GKrellM monitor look:
The bash script can be
found here.
