DESCRIPTION

16       wmsetbg  reads  the specified image (XPM, PNG, jpeg, Tiff, raw PPM) and
17       puts it on the root window. It can either scale the image or tile it to
18       make  it fit the root window. Window Maker uses this command internally
19       to set the root window image on start up.
