on the root window
SYNOPSISxscreensaver-getimage-file [-display host:display.screen]
[--verbose] [--name] directory
DESCRIPTION
The xscreensaver-getimage-file program is a helper program
for the xscreensaver hacks that manipulate images.
Specifically, it is invoked by xscreensaver-getimage(1) as
needed. This is not a user-level command.
This program selects a random image from disk, and loads
it on the root window. It does this by figuring out which
image-loading programs are installed on the system, and
invoking the first one it finds.
OPTIONSxscreensaver-getimage-file accepts the following options:
--verbose
Print diagnostics.
--name
Don't load an image: instead just print the file name
to stdout.
directory
The directory to search. The directory will be
searched recursively, and all files in it are assumed
to be images.
