zsh-screensaver

Hey everyone — last month I released a new little Zsh plugin I’ve been fiddling with in my spare time, called zsh‑screensaver, and thought I’d share it in case anyone finds it fun / useful.

So what it is: when your terminal has been idle for a bit, it shows a visual overlay or banner (or even a GIF, if you want — that's what I use 🔥), kind of like a screensaver for your shell. And then when you interact, it vanishes and restores what you were doing. I got tired of staring at idle prompts while working on several tasks (I main tmux), so this was my solution 😄.

If you try it out I’d love to hear:

• How it behaves on your setup (macOS / Linux / etc.)
• Ideas for other “screensaver styles” someone might enjoy
• Any edge‑cases I didn’t consider 🤔

Also, feel free to make pull requests and suggest features. I generally don't have a lot of free time, but I will try to be as responsive as possible!! ❤️ https://github.com/UmbraDeorum/zsh-screensaver
