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 appropiate manpage should be here). In the later case color is a quoted string.
