Displays a single image centered in the root window,
surrounded by a black and white 'brick' pattern.
Note: The three 'centered' modes (RRRRooooooootttt:::: CCCCeeeennnntttteeeerrrreeeedddd, RRRRooooooootttt::::

CCCCeeeennnntttteeeerrrr TTTTiiiilllleeeedddd) require the creation of a Pixmap the size of
the screen. This can be a fairly large request for
resources, and will fail on a color X terminal with
insufficient memory. They can also require the transmission
of considerably more data than the other 'root' modes. If
you're on a brain-damaged X terminal hanging off a slow
network, you should probably go somewhere else. Barring
that, you should certainly avoid the 'centered' modes.
Also note: If you quit _x_v while displaying an image on the
root window, the image will remain in the root window, and
the colors used by the image will remain allocated. This is
generally regarded as correct behavior. If you decide you
want to get rid of the root image to free up resources, or
simply because you're sick of seeing it, the quickest route
is to use run 'xv -clear', which will clear the root window,
release any allocated colors, and exit. Alternately,
_x_s_e_t_r_o_o_t and any other X program that puts things in the
root window should be able to do the trick as well.
