SYNOPSIS

       wmsetbg      [-display]      [--version]      [--help]      [{-b|--back-color}      color]
       [{-t|--tile}|{-e|--center}|{-s|--scale}|{-a|--maxscale}                             image]
       [{-d|--dither}|{-m|--match}]     [-u|--update-wmaker]     [{-D|--update-domain}    domain]
       [{-c|--colors} cpc] [{-p|--parse} texture] [{-w|--workspace} workspace]

DESCRIPTION

       wmsetbg reads the specified image (XPM, PNG, jpeg, Tiff, raw PPM) and puts it on the  root
       window.  It  can  either scale the image or tile it to make it fit the root window. Window
       Maker uses this command internally to set the root window image on start up.

OPTIONS

       -a|--maxscale
              scales the specified image preserving its aspect ratio

       -b|--back-color
              the specified color is used as the background color for the texture.  Window  Maker
              temporarely  sets  the  background  to  this color while loading and processing the
              texture.  You can specify colors using their X11 names or as an RGB tiplet  (either
              as  "rgb:RR/GG/BB" or "#RRGGBB") (reference to appropriate manpage should be here).
              In the later case color is a quoted string.

       -e|--center
              centers the specified image

       -t|--tile
              tiles the specified image

       -s|--scale
              scales the specified image (default)

       -d|--dither
              dithers colors

       -m|--match
              matches colors

       -u|--update-wmaker
              updates the Window Maker defaults database

       -D|--update-domain
              updates the specified domain database

       -c|--colors
              colors per channel to use

       -p|--parse
              parses the specified texture as a proplist style texture

       -w|--workspace
              update background only for the specified workspace
