I have never tried the bgmenu.rb script although I've written my own located at
http://www.xeron.cc/main/files/bg if you'd like to give it a shot. It should be
pretty self-explanatory, just put the script in a pipe menu and change the
variables in it so it uses the command of your choice to set the background. I
personally use display from imagemagick but xv should work as well. I have
defaults in there for imagemagick's display, and bsetbg.
