NAME

       fbsetbg - Set a background wallpaper or pattern

SYNOPSIS

       fbsetbg [-uU wallpapersetter] [-fFcCtTaA] wallpaper

       fbsetbg [-uU wallpapersetter] -rR path

       fbsetbg -bB fbsetrootoptions...

       fbsetbg [-l|h|i|p]

DESCRIPTION

       fbsetbg(1) is a wrapper that tries to find a suitable background-setting app and then
       tries to set the wallpaper using that app. You don’t have to configure fbsetbg. It just
       uses the first app it can find.

       Furthermore it supports remembering the last set wallpaper so you don’t have to edit the
       style or init-file to change the wallpaper.

       It aims to provide clear error messages in a window that make debugging problems easy.

OPTIONS

       -f file
           Set fullscreen wallpaper.

       -c file
           Set centered wallpaper.

       -t file
           Set tiled wallpaper.

       -a file
           Set maximized wallpaper, preserving aspect (if your bgsetter doesn’t support this
           option fbsetbg falls back to -f).

       -u wallpapersetter
           Use specified wallpapersetter, use no argument to forget.

       -b fbsetrootoptions
           Forward the options to fbsetroot(1). These can be used to set a solid, pattern, or
           gradient background texture.

       -r directory
           Set random wallpaper from a directory.

       -F, -C, -T, -A, -U, -B, -R
           Same as the lowercase option but without remembering.

       -l
           Set previous wallpaper. Or, if the random feature was last used, set another random
           wallpaper from the same directory.

       -i
           Display useful information about best wallpapersetter found.

       -p
           Display some useful tips.

       -h
           Display a help message.
