gdmbackground.sh

#!/bin/sh -e

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Change the GDM background.
# based on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GDM
# by https://twitter.com/jeffprod
#
# If you have dual screens, you should copy your current settings to gdm
# so that the image is not reversed right-left :
# sudo cp ~/.config/monitors.xml ~gdm/.config
#
# If you have dual screen, the image should be for example : 3840x1080
#
# USAGE
#  chmod +x gdmbackground.sh
#  ./gdmbackground.sh <path-to-image-filename>
#
# EXEMPLE
#  ./gdmbackground.sh ~/wallpaper.jpg
