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.

       -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.

       -t|--tile
	      tiles the specified image

       -s|--scale
