in reply to Random Desktop Background for IceWM

Nice. I once wrote a script to launch xterms with random background color. I'm not using that anymore because now I'm committed to light grey text over black background.

Update: by the way, my current xinitrc script starts just icewm instead of icewm-session, and sets the background with Imagemagick's display program like display -window root ~/.xbg.

Update 2010-07-04: see also GNOME Random Wallpaper Picker.

    Thank you

    I hadn't even thought about using display to set backgrounds.
