The 'background' csh script changes the screen background color/image via pft
Usage background -reset
background -gray GrayShade
background -RGB Red Green Blue
background -{file, center, scale, minscale, tile, debug} FileName
0.0 <= GrayShade, Red, Green, Blue <= 1.0
FileName = Encapsulated PostScript file.
Options can be shortened to just their first letter, eg. 'background -g 0.666'
The 'gray' & 'RGB' options can be combined with 'file', 'center' and 'minscale'
The 'file' option just puts up an image at {0,0}, the 'center' option centers
the image on the screen instead. The 'scale' and 'minscale' fit the image to
the screen -- 'scale' maintains aspect ratio, 'minscale' doesn't. The 'tile'
option tiles the screen with an image. Only one of these options should be
used at a time.
