Maybe we should create a dockapp for this :-)

Something like "wmchangebg" or "wmRandomBG"?

A simple dockapp with a config file where we can write a time intervall
like "60" which will change the wallpaper all 60 minutes. and also a
folder where are all the wallpapers which has to begin with something
like 0-bg.png 1-bg.png ...

Also a list of several times in this config file with a filename after
the time like 08:00 AM -> wallpaper Morning; 08:00 PM -> wallpaper
Evening ...

And the dockapp should have buttons in it which change the wallpaper to
"previous" and "next" or "random" or "next theme" a theme is only a
other folder with other images...

I have only the idea of this, but i dont think i am able to program
this. But i think this would be a nice idea in my opinion.

Also it should use wmsetbg internal or a other command for setting bg
in the config.

Furthermore Windowmaker dont have a section in the WPrefs which is for
changing bg, with some thumbails for example.

Best regards
Chris
