ST transparency without composite manager
Is there any way to get transparent st terminals without using a composite manager like the alpha patch requires? I've found a tool to set gifs as backgrounds (https://github.com/glouw/paperview) but it can't run while a composite manager is running as they both try to write to the root X11 window and so when I use it I can't see the animated background through st which defeats the point.

Can you ran wallpaper engine on linux?
No, wallpaper engine doesn't work on linux and as far as i know they don't have plans for a linux version. As for the alternative, there is this https://github.com/glouw/paperview but i haven't used it so i don't know how good it works.

Any way to set a video wallpaper?
There is also paperview (although not in the void repo) that uses BMP files from a folder to display an animated background. (Converting a video to BMP images can be done with ffmpeg.)
