XPlanet is a great desktop background generator that renders real-time images of the planets onto your desktop background.
E17 is the next generation window manager for Linux from the Enlightenment Project.

Unfortunately, XPlanet is unable to render its images directly to E17's backdrop. So I've written a script that can.

• XPlanet 1.1.2 or later (earlier versions may work, but I haven't tested them)
• E17 Window Manager (last checked against e17 CVS on 11th July 2008)

The README file supplied in the tarball contains all the installation and usage instructions.
Please Note: The script is designed to be installed and run from your own home directory, and not a central location.

The latest version is 1.04, available for download here: e17XPlanet-1.04.tar.gz.
See the Changelog for what's new.
