Hello All,
I recently wrote a BASH script that allowed me to launch a slideshow on a computer running Linux Ubuntu 22.04. The program that I used for creating the slideshow was Irfanview. Normally, Irfanview only works on computers running Windows but I installed Wine under Ubuntu and was then able to play the slideshow.
As a personal challenge, I wrote a BASH script that plays the slideshow by simply opening the Terminal in Ubuntu and typing sudo slideshow
I show the process for installing Wine, downloading Irfanview and writing the BASH script at
