Creating a repo to help preserve the find

Set with xsetroot. Examples:

  • Simple example
    xsetroot -bitmap [selection].xbm
  • Add colors
    xsetroot -bitmap [selection].xbm -bg "color" -fg "color"
  • Leverage current colors from xrdb
    xsetroot -bitmap [selection].xbm "$(xrdb -query|awk '/\*color8:/ {print $2})" -fg "$(xrdb -query|awk '/\*color7:/ {print $2}')"
