This is a random background generator that uses X11 graphics. Currently 
there are four different styles of random backgrounds:

* Color circles. The size, thickness, color, position and number of the
  circles are all random.

* Color squares. The size and color of the squares are random.

* Wallpaper patterns based on Computer Recreations article by A. K. Dewdney
  in Scientific American.

* Textured patterns based on an article from Computer Graphics Vol 22,
  Number 1, February 1988.

See the manual page for more details.
 
See the INSTALL file for details of how to configure and build this

Thanks to Hans de Graff, Mats Lidell and Nathan Edwards for various comments
and bug reports.
