Hi, I'm trying to get fvwm-root to use an image piped to it. I thought if I used /dev/stdin as the filename it would work. It doesn't. I'm using this command:
$ convert file.jpg png:/dev/stdout | fvwm-root -r /dev/stdin This is what I get: [fvwm-root] failed to load image file '/proc/self/fd/0' /dev/stdin being a symlink isn't the problem. I checked to see if fvwm-root decides if the file is a png or xpm by extension or content. It decides by content (ie I copied file.png to file and tried it). Is this a bug? Is there a way around it? I guess I could use temporary files, but that ugly... TIA -- Mark A. Nicolosi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
