x11/hsetroot 1.0.5nb3 NetBSD

hsetroot is a tool which allows you to compose wallpapers (root pixmaps) for X. It has a lot of options like rendering gradients, solids and images but it also allows you to perform manipulations on those things or chain them together. You could, for example, use one standard background image together with tint to make it fit your current theme. It is also compatible with semi-translucent applications like aterm and xchat.

At the moment, hsetroot can render: gradients (multi-color with variable distance), solids (rectangles) and images (centered, tiled, fullscreen, or maximum aspect). It supports the following manipulations: tinting (overlaying a color mask), blurring, sharpening, flipping (horizontally, diagonally, vertically), and also allows you to adjust brightness, contrast and gamma-level. At last, it supports alpha-channels during renders.
