How do I make a wallpaper appear on my desktop?
My compile path is /home/rmh/Application/repos/linux-wallpaperengine/build/build My assets file path is /home/rmh/Application/repos/linux-wallpaperengine/build/build/assets The wallpaper_engine path for my staem game is /home/rmh/snap/steam/common/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/wallpaper_engine/assets My wallpaper URL is https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2371185561
Step 1 I'm running ./linux-wallpaperengine 2371185561 in the terminal The following result is returned, and a pop-up window appears
