flico
Description
A command line tool to create collage using Flicr Images. It accepts 10 search keywords as arguments then, queries the Flickr API for the top-rated image for each keyword, downloads them, crops them rectangularly, assembles a collage grid from them and saves with user given file name.
If given less than ten keywords, or if any keyword fails to
result in a match, it retrieves random words from a dictionary
source such as /usr/share/dict/words
. Repeating as necessary
until you have gathered ten images.
