hsetroot is a tool which allows you to compose wallpapers ("root pixmaps")
for X11. It has a lot of options like rendering gradients, solids, images
but it also allows you to perform manipulations on those things, or chain
them together. You could use one standard background image for instance,
and using tint to make it fit your current theme. And yes, of course it is
compatible with semi-translucent applications like aterm and xchat.
At this time, hsetroot can render: gradients (multi-color with variable
distance), solids (rectangles) and images (centered, tiled, fullscreen, or
maximum aspect). It supports the following manipulations: tinting
(overlaying a color mask), blurring, sharpening, flipping (horizontally,
diagonally, vertically) it also allows you to adjust brightness, contrast
and gamma-level. hsetroot also supports alpha-channels when rendering
things.
===> The following configuration options are available for hsetroot-1.0.5_3:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

- Update `x11/hsetroot' to version 1.0.5
- Adds -root parameter, to treat the whole desktop as one display,
applying the image over the whole, instead of per each display
- No longer depends on xrandr(1) in the run-time

Add USES=xorg USES=gl, ports categories x
Add USES=xorg and USES=gl to ports in categories starting with 'x'
While here, try to sprinkle other USES (mostly gnome and sdl) as needed.
Unbreak the build (at least) on powerpc, powerpc64, sparc64, by moving the
`for' loop initial declaration variable outside; this was upsetting C99:
hsetroot.c: In function 'load_image':
hsetroot.c:196: error: 'for' loop initial declaration used outside C99 mode
Tested on: powerpc, sparc64
Add custom patch that introduces "sane" image rendering mode: it allows to
select the best aspect ratio and display image with minimal scaling yet not
centered. This mode is useful when one wants to use an image with author's
copyright in the lower corner and wants to hide it. Existing modes did not
always provide the best possible result. While here, take maintainership.
Mark some ports failing on power64. In cases where the error message
was a stub, provide a real one.
While here, pet portlint.
