How can I set the virtual root window to a color image under TWM? Ssetroot understands X bitmaps and that's it. I switched from twm to piewm and lost the ability to put a gif in my root window. I especially recommend this gif; it's a fractal image with extreme depth of focus. Looking at it between windows causes your eyes to change depth of focus, which helps prevent eyestrain. -- Lance Norskog thinman@netcom.com Data is not information is not knowledge is not wisdom.
