Is a runcat port for Linux using libappindicator.

(Another useless cat here..)

• libappindicator-gtk3

mkdir build && cd build

cmake .. && make

make install

It will install all default icons to your ~/.config/runcat/icons, optionally, you can move/copy the runcat binary to your $PATH.

runcat

There're several flags to use:

• -l to set the lower bound of FPS, default to 6
• -u to set the upper bound of FPS, default to 90
• -d to set the default icon set, default to $HOME/.config/runcat/icons/cat

The default resources are from internet.

• from win0err/gnome-runcat
• from unreturnable
• from github home page
• from cultofthepartyparrot.com

You can use your custom pictures.

1. extract all frames(png/svg are good) from a gif, usually using imagemagick's convert command, like

convert -coalesce ./input.gif out%02d.png

2. copy those frames in a directory.
3. use the -d flag to specify the icons' ABS path(like /home/username/.config/runcat/icons/xxx).

PS: It currently support no more than 30 frames in a directory.
