    Setting wallpaper using rox-filer

    I just made a post last night about how to set wallpaper using the fluxbox menu. Well I've found an even better way for anyone who uses rox-filer. This will work for any window manager and background setting application, I'm just using fbsetbg as an example. First, create a small shell script. Open a text editor and add the following lines.

    #!/bin/bash
    fbsetbg -a "$@"

    Now save the file and give it a name. I named it setbackground.sh. Make it executable and move it to ~/.choices/SendTo. Now when you go to your wallpaper directory, you can right click on any wallpaper, click sendto on the menu, choose setbackground.sh, and it will set the wallpaper.

    Good hint!!
    "I was pulled over for speeding today. The officer said, "Don't you know
    the speed limit is 55 miles an hour?" And I said, "Yes, but I wasn't going
    to be out that long."
