However, it should be detected ;; automatically in most cases. If it doesn't work in your ;; environment, customize the user options `wallpaper-command' and ;; `wallpaper-command-args'. ;;; Code: (eval-when-compile (require 'subr-x)) (require 'xdg) ;;; Finding the wallpaper command (defvar wallpaper--default-commands ;; When updating this, also update the custom :type for `wallpaper-command'.
