# orbitty

Terminal idle screensaver - slowly spinning planets with procedural surface textures.

## Install

```bash
cargo install --path .
```

This installs the binary to `~/.cargo/bin/`. Make sure it is in your `PATH`:

For bash/zsh:

```bash
export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH"
```

Add that line to your `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc` to make it permanent.

For fish:

```fish
fish_add_path $HOME/.cargo/bin
```

After that, `orbitty` works from anywhere.

Requires a terminal with true color support (`COLORTERM=truecolor` or `COLORTERM=24bit`).

```bash
orbitty
```
