Yo Evgeny!

I've been trying to catch you on IRC, but our schedules seem to be out
of sync. :-)

I'm looking for an XWEM answer to displaying an image on the root
window.  What I want is the image to be resized to fit exactly inside
an unsplit XWEM frame.  In other words, if I have an empty transparent
XWEM frame I should be able to see 100% of the image, and the image's
borders should be flush with the XWEM frame's borders.

Do you see what I'm getting at?

Maybe what I need is to set up a background image for the frame.  But
doing that I'd have to set it for _every_ frame.  Just chucking the
image on the root window with the right size and position means I only
need to do it once. :-)

See the sorts of things that I waste my time with. :-)
