FvwmBanner(1)                                       FvwmBanner(1)



NAME
       FvwmBanner - the FVWM Banner

SYNOPSIS
       FvwmBanner is intended to be spawned by fvwm.


DESCRIPTION
       FvwmBanner  displays  an  Fvwm  Logo  in the center of the
       screen for 3 seconds.


COPYRIGHTS
       None.


INITIALIZATION
       Nothing interesting.


INVOCATION
       FvwmBanner can be invoked by the command 'Module  FvwmBan-
       ner'.   This  can  be bound to a menu or key-stroke in the
       .fvwm2rc file, but more likely you would do  this  in  the
       StartFunction or InitFunction, for example:

            AddToFunc InitFunction "I" Module FvwmBanner


       You  can  also  give  it  an optional file parameter, like
       'FvwmBanner doomface.xpm' or specify an alternate  default
       pixmap   via   configuration  options  (see  "*FvwmBanner:
       Pixmap" below).  Fvwm will search the  ImagePath  to  find
       the image, or you can use the full path to the image.


CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
       *FvwmBanner: NoDecor
              Tells  FvwmBanner to create a window that Fvwm will
              not manage and not decorate.


       *FvwmBanner: Pixmap file
              Tells FvwmBanner to display  file  instead  of  the
              built in pixmap.


       *FvwmBanner: Timeout sec
              Tells FvwmBanner to display for sec seconds instead
              of default of 3 seconds.
