Hello, I've seen various posts on the mailing list about how to set a background image in wmii.
Of course, background images aren't that useful if you're doing anything, but I like to see something cool when I start wmii. I'm calling the following line from my ~/.wmii-3.5/wmiirc file: feh -bg-center ~/Pictures/Wallpaper/Arch/arch_wallpaper.png & It works, but the image only shows up on Tag 1, and it overlaps other windows. If I press Shift+Mod4+C, then the image goes away. In addition, when I bring up terminal on Tag1, it's started in Floating mode. I also tried running the "feh" command from the command line after wmii started, but that image also hogs the Tag and doesn't show any other windows that I start up. I've seen examples where people put the above feh -bg-center command into ~/.fehbg, and put this line in wmiirc. eval `cat ~/.fehbg` in their .wmiirc and I tried that, and I get the same results, plus I'm confused about why you wouldn't just make ~/.fehbg executable, or call the contents of .fehbg from wmiirc. Any ideas? I'm using wmii 3.6 on Arch Linux. Thanks, --Nate
