FvwmBacker - the FVWM background changer module
</PRE>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
FvwmBacker is spawned by fvwm, so no command line invoca-
tion will work.
</PRE>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
The FvwmBacker module provides functionality to change the
background when changing desktops. Any command can be
executed to change the backgrounds. The commands used to
change the backgrounds must exit after changing the root
window, (i.e. 'xv -root zzz.gif' does not, without the
-quit option) otherwise FvwmBacker will hang.
</PRE>
<H2>COPYRIGHTS</H2><PRE>
The FvwmBacker module is the original work of Mike Finger.
Copyright 1994, Mike Finger. The author makes no guaran-
tees or warranties of any kind about the use of this mod-
ule. Use this modules at your own risk. You may freely
use this module or any portion of it for any purpose as
long as the copyright is kept intact.
</PRE>
<H2>INITIALIZATION</H2><PRE>
During initialization, <I>FvwmBacker</I> will scan the same con-
figuration file that FVWM used during startup to find the
options that pertain to it. These options are discussed
in a later section.
</PRE>
<H2>INVOCATION</H2><PRE>
FvwmBacker can be invoked by fvwm during initialization by
inserting the line 'Module FvwmBacker' in the .fvwmrc
file.
FvwmBacker must reside in a directory that is listed in
the ModulePath option of FVWM for it to be executed by
FVWM.
</PRE>
<H2>CONFIGURATION OPTIONS</H2><PRE>
The following is the only supported option at present:
*FvwmBackerDesk <I>DeskNumber</I> <I>command</I>
Specifies the <I>command</I> to execute when the specified
<I>DeskNumber</I> becomes active.
If the command begins with <I>-solid</I> FvwmBacker uses
ing a system call to xsetroot. Only single word
color names may be used.
</PRE>
<H2>SAMPLE CONFIGURATION</H2><PRE>
The following are excepts from a .fvwmrc file which
describe FvwmBacker initialization commands:
####
# Set Up Backgrounds for different desktops.
####
*FvwmBackerDesk 0 -solid steelblue
*FvwmBackerDesk 1 -solid midnightblue
*FvwmBackerDesk 2 -solid yellow
*FvwmBackerDesk 3 xpmroot /usr/include/X11/pixmaps/background2.xpm
