Cam uses +keyed bookmarks. Type "cam --help" at the command line for usage +information. + +Webcam Information +================== +All webcam images are the property of their respective owners. If you +enjoy the cam, you should check out the page too! The initial list of +cam bookmarks (in the cam_bookmarks file) is a combination of webcams +scoured from the #E People Page (http://bma.debian.net/~bma/e-irc/), +my favorite webcams from the Stile Project's cam pages +(http://www.stileproject.com/), and additional #e people cams that +have come online since cam's original release (0.1). + +Installation +============ +- Copy the "cam" script to a location in your PATH (ex /usr/bin, + /usr/local/bin, or $HOME/bin), and make sure hte execute bit on the + script is set (type "chmod a+x $HOME/.cam_bookmarks"). +- Copy the "cam_bookmarks" file to $HOME/.cam_bookmarks and make sure + cam can see it by typing "cam --list". +- Optionally, modify the options inside the cam script. You can pass + feh any options before the image by adjusting the $PRE variable, + and any options after the image by adjustin the $POST variable. + For example, I like to keep all cam images by default; you can enable + this behavior with the -k command line option, or enable it permanently + by adding it to the $PRE flags in cam. + +About the Authors +================= +Paul Duncan <pabs@pablotron.org>, pabs on #e +http://www.pablotron.org/ + +Richard Lowe <richlowe@btinternet.com>, richlowe on #e +http://www.richlowe.btinternet.co.uk/ + +...but the real credit goes to Tom Gilbert for making feh, an awesome +image viewer. :) |
