sWMicons is a really small utility to load a xpm-image into the root window and put some icons on top of it.

If the pixmap is smaller than the screen resolution, it will be repeated to fill the entire screen. If the option FILEWRITER is enabled, sWMicons will generate the files button1...button3 for you.

Usage

Put sWMicons into your sWMstartrc. sWMicons loads the file .sWM/sWMiconsrc. Edit this file to suit you needs.

Adding a background image:
Take you favourite background image, transform it to your X-server's resolution and color depth and save it as an xpm under for example:
".sWM/backgound.xpm" and add the following line to your sWMiconsrc:

background:tile:.sWM/background.xpm

I've put a small example pixmap in this distribution - don't take it too serious. :-)

What's New in This Release:
check for .swmiconsrc (fixed coredump)
