OS X: Terminal Command to Display Screen Saver as Wallpaper
Since I'm new to Mac and OS X, I'm going to make a few posts here and there to serve as references for commands and the such that I might have a hard time remembering. Here's the first. This terminal command lets you use your screensaver as your desktop wallpaper. I use it with SerenScreen's Marine Aquarium found here. The command:
/System/Library/Frameworks
/ScreenSaver.framework/Versions/A/Resources
/ScreenSaverEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background &
As you know the ampersand backgrounds the process. Run "ps" to find it's process number and "kill" it if you need to.
