NAME
     bgs - background setter

SYNOPSIS
     bgs [-v] [-c] [-C hex] [-z] [-R] [-x] [IMAGE1...IMAGEN]

DESCRIPTION
     bgs  allows  you to tailor the appearance of the background ("root") window
     on a workstation display running X.

     bgs uses imlib2 for image rendering and rotates the  images  automatically.
     It  is  designed for dynamic Xinerama/Xrandr setups such as those used with
     notebooks, but it works well in any setup.

OPTIONS
     -v     prints version information to standard output, then exits.

     -c     centers image rather than scaling it.

     -C hex
	    specifies background color to use when the image does not  fill  the
	    screen.

     -z     zooms image rather than scaling it.

     -R     prevents automatic rotation for optimal screen fill.

     -x     switches to dynamic mode. bgs will update your background as soon as
	    the root window changes.

     if multiple images are specified, each image is set for each monitor, in
     order.

SEE ALSO
     dwm(1) xsetroot(1)

BUGS
     bgs  can't decide how the monitor is rotated if you use xrandr-rotation, so
     it assumes the monitor is rotated clockwise.
