DESCRIPTION

Splash renders splash screens for installers and other non GUI aware application code. If invoked from a non X11 environment it remains silent but runs the client code. It displays the selected xpm images centered on the display and shaped according to the mask of the xpm. (If you want to no shape use no mask.)
