You can use these images on a WWW page by adding the following line to the html page.DESKTOP TEXTURES Desktop Textures is an on-going graphic arts/software project of Stephen Krauth and Geoff Adams, one of several such projects at Avernus. The xpm files in this directory are derived from the textures we've created for display on the Macintosh desktop. You can find the current release of the Desktop Textures distribution for the Macintosh on the Glue anonymous ftp site ftp.eng.umd.edu in the pub/avernus directory. This is a MacBinary file. If you prefer to transfer a BinHex file, you can find one on the Info Mac ftp site sumex-aim.stanford.edu. There are currently three complete volumes of textures and one 24-bit supplement. This directory contains only some of them. As time allows, we'll be filling this directory with the rest of the textures. You can display these patterns on your X display with your favourite bitmap/pixmap viewer, such as xv. You can also set one of our textures to be your X root window background: * If you use tvtwm, you can set the VirtualDesktopBackgroundPixmap and PannerBackgroundPixmap variables each to the filename of one of these textures. * If you use another window manager, you can place a command in your .xsession file that says something like: "xloadimage -onroot filename". These images are not for use with the Microsoft Windows environment. Using these patterns in a Windows environment consitutes a copyright violation. All other use and further distribution requires that we are credited with creation of the textures. Obtain our permission prior to redistribution in any form other than this entire package as you find it here.
