       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
