Thats the idea behind this software; What started out as a simple idea, after many months of work I present to you rePaper. When running fullscreen applications or games rePaper will go to sleep (~0% cpu & gpu usage); no performance cost. _Check out my other Project Lively for a general purpose wallpaper system._ ## Download > ### I'm not working on this project at the moment.
