active backgrounds for Blackbox?

[David W. Talmage]

I just discovered something cool about blackbox.


If you have xscreensaver installed, then you can put this in a style file:

rootCommand:                    /usr/X11R6/libexec/xscreensaver/flag -root &

and have it run as your background.  I suppose you could put any program there.


I haven't discovered how to make blackbox stop it when I change styles.  I 
suppose I could make a shell script that captures the process number when I 
start another active background and kills the previous active background.
