.B --bg-tile FILE
Set FILE as your desktop background, tiled if neccessary.
Feh can use enlightenment IPC if you are running it,
or will fall back to X methods.
Feh stores the commandline necessary to restore the background you chose
in ~/.fehbg.  So to have feh-set backgrounds restored when you restart X,
add the line "`cat $HOME/.fehbg`" to your X startup script (e.g. ~/.xsession).
Note that you only need to do this for non E window managers.

.B --bg-center FILE
Set FILE as centered desktop background
.TP 5
.B --bg-scale FILE
Set FILE as scaled desktop background.
This will fill the whole background with FILE, but its aspect ratio will not
be preserved.
.TP 5
.B --bg-fill FILE
Like --bg-scale, but preserves aspect ratio by zooming the image until it
fits.  Either a horizontal or a vertical part of the image will be cut off.
.TP 5
.B --bg-seamless FILE
Set your desktop background to FILE. Feh
can use enlightenment IPC if you are running
it, or will fall back to X methods.
Feh stores the commandline necessary to restore
the background you chose in ~/.fehbg. So to have
feh-set backgrounds restored when you restart X,
add the line "`cat $HOME/.fehbg`" to your
X startup script (e.g. ~/.xsession). Note that
you only need to do this for non E window
managers.
Like --bg-tile, but with blurry corners so that it is (in some cases ;-))
less obvious that the image is too small for the screen.
.TP 5
.B -M, --menu-font FONT
Use FONT for the font in menus.
