OPTIONS

path
If the path is a directory, it, and it's subdirectories, are searched for images. If the path is a file, the file is opened as a list of paths.

A random picture from these directories is chosen, and set as the background.

--wallpaper=path --centered=path --scaled=path --streched=path
How the images in the given directories should be displayed. Described in detail in ghelp:user-guide#goscustdesk-7.

--daemon [ =seconds ] | -D [ seconds ]
Go into daemon mode, i.e, run in the background and change the the image periodically. Takes an optional argument, which is the number of seconds to wait between changing the image. If no period is specified, a default of 10 minutes is used. When running in daemon mode, chbg-gnome2 will be restarted by session management, i.e., it will automatically start each time you log in.
