1. feh is a program that replaces your background
2. I ran env in my shell and did not see anything to do with feh anywhere...oh well...maybe there is an easier way to do what I am trying to do...
I have created a perl script that when you log in to your computer it randomly chooses a wallpaper, however if I want it to change say every 30 minutes or so I was going to let cron run my script every thirty minutes...seemed to make sense, but has turned into a nightmare..
I am open to other ideas to accomplish this.
