SYNOPSIS
     xsetroot [-help] [-def] [-fg <color>] [-bg <color>] [-

DESCRIPTION
     The program xsetroot allows you to set the characteristics
     of the ``root'' or background window on an X server.  If no
     options are specified, or if -def is specified, the window
     is reset to its default state.  -def can be specified along
     with other options and only the non-specified
     characteristics will be reset to the default state.

     Only one of the color changing options ( -solid, -gray, -
     grey, -bitmap and -mod) may be specified at a time.

     The various options are as follows:

     -help
          Print a usage message and exit.

     -def Reset unspecified attributes to the default values.

     -fg <color>
          Use ``<color>'' as the foreground color when setting
          attributes.

     -bg <color>
          Use ``<color>'' as the background color when setting
          attributes.

     -invert
          Swap the values of the foreground and background colors
          when setting attributes.

     -name <string>
          Set the name of the root window to ``<string>''.  The
          default value is ``X Root Window''.
