gh screensaver [options]

gh screensaver is a GitHub CLI extension that displays animated terminal screensavers. Available screensavers are: fireworks, starfield, pipes, marquee, life (Conway's Game of Life), and pollock (paint splotches). Without -s, a random screensaver is chosen.Screensaver-specific options are passed after --. For example, marquee supports --message and --font; starfield supports --density and --speed; fireworks, pipes, and life support --color (full/off); life supports --seed (glider, noise, R, dragon, gun, pulsar).This extension must be installed first with gh extension install vilmibm/gh-screensaver. Press q or Ctrl+C to exit the screensaver.
