REQUIREMENTS
	Any Amiga® (compatible) computer with at least OS2.04 and being
	capable to display backdrop pictures. RndWbPix 39.1 requires OS3+.


DESCRIPTION
	RndWbPix is a small program that provides random backdrop 
	pictures for your wbscreen, wbwindow and drawer windows.
	It runs from the startup-sequence each reboot and picks (a)
	random picture(s) from the specified directory/ies.


INSTALLATION
	1. 	Copy RndWbPix to your C: directory
		Users of OS3.0 should copy RndWbPix_v39 to their C: directory
		(Copy RndWbPix_v39 TO c:RndWbPix).
		
	2.	Next edit the file s:startup-sequence and add the follow-
		ing line somewhere BEFORE C:IPrefs
		
		C:RndWbPix <ROOTPATH> <DRAWERPATH> <SCREENPATH>
		
		where ROOTPATH is the directory that you have your back-
		drop pictures for your wbwindow in eg. SYS:Prefs/Backdrops
		
		DRAWERPATH is the same as ROOTPATH, except that this option
		specifies the directory where you have stored the pictures 
		for the drawer windows.
		
		SCREENPATH is the directory where you have stored your back-
		drops for the wbscreen.
		
		Examples:
		C:RndWbPix SYS:Prefs/Backdrops
			RndWbPix changes each boot up the picture for your wbwin.
		C:RndWbPix SYS:Prefs/Backdrops SCREENPATH SYS:Prefs/Scrbdrops
			Same as above but the wbscreen backdrop is also changed.
		C:RndWbPix DRAWERPATH SYS:Prefs/Backdrops
			RndWbPix changes only the backdrops of the drawer windows 
			each reboot.
	3.	Save the changes :-)


TECHNICAL
	Each time you start RndWbPix it modifies the file 
	ENV:sys/wbpattern.prefs. The ENVARC: file stays untouched.
