It displays the selected xpm images centered on the dis
play and shaped according to the mask of the xpm. (If you
want to no shape use no mask.)
splash opens a window to display the image gives as the
first argument. This must be a .xpm file. Then it starts
the script given as the second argument.
splac should only be called from within this script. It
accepts the following arguments:
image new.xpm Changes the image to new.xpm.
title string Sets the window title to string. The new
image need not be the same size.
