feh: Set the slideshow cycle delay.
$ feh --slideshow-delay ${seconds} ${path-to-images}
try on your machine

The command "feh --slideshow-delay ${seconds} ${path-to-images}" is used to start a slideshow of images using the feh image viewer in Linux. Here is the breakdown of the command: - "feh" is the name of the image viewer application.

  • "--slideshow-delay" is an option provided by feh to specify the duration (in seconds) between each image change in the slideshow.
  • "${seconds}" is a placeholder where you would enter the desired time interval (in seconds) between image transitions.
  • "${path-to-images}" is a placeholder where you would specify the directory path where the images for the slideshow are located. For example, if you want to start a slideshow using feh with a delay of 5 seconds between image transitions and the images are located in the "/home/user/pictures" directory, you would run the command as follows: feh --slideshow-delay 5 /home/user/pictures This would launch the feh image viewer in slideshow mode with the specified delay and display the images from the specified directory.
