Uses rox to change the background?
How about one that uses xli,xsri,xsetroot,Xloadimage or Xsetbg? :D

Hi again harii4,

There is a bug in script for wallpapers that have spaces in the names needs IFS=$'\n' added to the top of the script ( i should probably post an updated)
Yes uses Rox for setting the wallpaper - most puppy users seem to like desktop icons so i stick with Rox - although there isn't much to the script so it could easily be changed / adapted for some other wallpaper changer etc.

cheers.

Hi harii4 - are any of those tools available on puppy? I really want to use xloadimage but my Slacko 5.6 says "command not found". Maybe I am just spelling or capitalising it wrong. Any suggestions please? cheers!
