+# Slideshow
+
+The below commands will setup ```feh``` as a slideshow on your display. 
+
+## Important Notes
+
+* ```feh``` will crash if there are no photos for it to use as a slideshow
+* You will likely want to tweak the ```feh``` command invocation below. These are great settings as a starting point but you'll probably want to make adjustments for your use case.
+* This setup uses ```incron``` to restart ```feh``` when photos are deleted from the pictures folder. Without this piece ```feh``` will crash if a picture is removed from the pictures directory prior to ```feh``` rescaning the pictures directory.
+* We default to ```DejaVuSansMono``` as the font for display of EXIF data and filename. This is an open font and looks great on most displays. Any ```fontconfig``` font can be used in its place. Adjust according to your preferences.
+
+## Setup
+
+``` sh
+
+pacman -S feh imagemagick ttf-dejavu
+# reload 86400 is to refresh the list of images daily -- tune for preferred number of seconds
+# slideshow-delay is number of seconds (as a float) between images ; tune accordingly
+useradd -s /usr/bin/nologin -m feh
+chmod a+rx /tank/pictures
+pacman -S acl
+setfacl -m "u:feh:rX" /tank/pictures
+setfacl -dm "u:feh:rX" /tank/pictures
+pacman -S incron
+cat > /etc/incron.d/feh <<EOF
+/tank/pictures IN_DELETE systemctl restart greetd
+EOF
+systemctl enable --now incrond
+cat > /usr/local/bin/feh-slideshow.sh <<EOF
+#!/bin/bash
+/usr/bin/feh --auto-zoom --borderless --fullscreen --hide-pointer --image-bg black --randomize --recursive \
+--slideshow-delay 300 --reload 86400 \
+--draw-tinted --draw-exif --draw-filename \
+--fontpath /usr/share/fonts/TTF/ --font DejaVuSansMono/10 \
+--verbose \
+/tank/pictures
+EOF

+[initial_session]
+command = "/usr/bin/cage /usr/local/bin/feh-slideshow.sh"
+user = "feh"
+EOF
+systemctl restart greetd
