Xpenguins is a software that displays adorable penguins falling from the top of a user's screen and roaming around the top of their windows under X11.
To use Xpenguins, you'll need a system that runs the X Window System, such as Linux or Unix, and have the widely-used XPM library installed. Once you have those prerequisites, you can easily add the penguin animations to your desktop.
This program comes with some exciting new features in its latest release. For example, you can now use the "squish" option to kill the penguins using your mouse. Additionally, there are new themes available, such as Bill (with images from XBill) and Big Penguins. Plus, you can run multiple themes simultaneously to mix things up even more.
One potential drawback is that Xpenguins may interfere with your desktop icons by causing them to disappear. However, the software now includes an option to redraw any erased icons.
Overall, if you're looking for a fun and free way to add some cuteness to your computer interface, Xpenguins may be worth a try.
