NAME

muralis - display wallpaper on your desktop.

VERSION

This describes version 0.01 of muralis.

SYNOPSIS

wallpaper --help | --manpage | --version

wallpaper [options] file

DESCRIPTION

The muralis script displays a given image file on the desktop background (that is, the root window) of an X-windows display.

This tries to determine what size would best suit the image; whether to show it fullscreen or normal size, whether to show it tiled or centred on the screen. Setting the options overrides this behaviour.

One can also repeat the display of the last-displayed image, changing the display options as one desires.

This uses the xloadimage program to display the image file. This will display images from the directories given in the "path" section of the .xloadimagerc file.

This also depends on xwininfo to get information about the root window.

The Name

The name "muralis" comes from the Latin "muralis" which is the word from which "mural" was derived. I just thought it was a cool name for a wallpaper script.
