wal: Skip setting the terminal colors.
$ wal -i ${image-png} -s
try on your machine

The command "wal -i ${image-png} -s" is used to set the color scheme of the terminal and various applications based on an input image file.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "wal" is the command or the program that is being executed.
  • "-i" is a flag or option provided to indicate that we are specifying the input image file.
  • "${image-png}" is a placeholder or variable that represents the path or location of the input image file. This should be replaced with the actual path or location of your image file (in PNG format).
  • "-s" is another flag or option that stands for "synchronize". It tells the program to synchronize the color scheme with various applications like the terminal, text editors, etc.

To use this command, you would need to replace "${image-png}" with the actual path or location of your PNG image file. For example, if your image file is located at "/home/user/pictures/image.png", the command would be:

wal -i /home/user/pictures/image.png -s

Running this command would analyze the colors in the input image file and generate a color scheme that can be applied to your terminal and other supported applications.
