xpmroot is a small command-line tool that sets an XPM-format image as the background of the root window (desktop) in the X Window System. It is distributed as part of the fvwm window manager, and is used to set the wallpaper when running only a lightweight window manager without a desktop environment. It is simpler in features than xloadimage and feh, which do similar jobs.
