Its real simple, just run xv and you can set it as a background image or do
this on the command line
xv -root "image.jpg"
you can also use xsetroot but then yes it needs to be a xpm so you would
have to convert it using xv, or gimp etc
cheers

1. Icon backgrounds in AfterStep 1.4
Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how to change the background for icons (the icons which
appear when you iconify a window) in AfterStep 1.4. By default, they have
the same background as the default Wharf background, but when I change the
wharf, the icons stay dark grey.
Any help is appreciated,
Peter
