 # Porporo
 
-Porporo is an experimental operating system specification for [Varvara](https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/varvara.html), written in TAL and ANSI C. This is a work in progress, for more details [follow the development during december](https://rabbits.srht.site/decadv/).

-Since parts of Porporo are built with uxn itself, we need to have a partial implementation of the varvara ecosystem(`src/uxncli`), and an assembler(`src/uxnasm`). Compiling porporo begins by building these two tools, then assembling the roms required by porporo(`menu.rom`, `wallpaper.rom`, `potato.rom`). These 3 roms then needs to be converted to C style arrays with `format-c.rom` rom. When this is ready we can finally compile porporo.

-## Wallpaper
+### Wallpaper.rom
 
-The wallpaper rom expects a file named `.wallpaper` in the [chr format](https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/chr_format.html) that is large enough to fill the screen. The way I do it is by, first getting the screen size(let's say `1328x640`), creating a `wallpaper.tga` image at that size, converting it with [tgachr](https://git.sr.ht/~rabbits/uxn-utils/tree/main/item/cli/tgachr/tgachr.tal), generating a file named `wallpapera6x50.chr`, and finally renaming it to `.wallpaper`. Voila!
