beautify your screen

## NAME

xbanner, freetemp, xb\_check - beautify your screen

## SYNOPSIS

**xbanner** *\[options\] files ...*\
 **freetemp** *\[-display displayname\]*\
 **xb\_check** *\<file*

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **xbanner ,** **freetemp,** and **xb\_check** commands.

**xbanner** is a screen beautification command. It has a multitude of options; see /usr/share/doc/xbanner/XBanner\_Users\_Manual.html for a full explination.

**freetemp** should be run after xbanner, once you want to get rid of the screen display xbanner creates. This will free up some memory.

**xb\_check** reads standard input, expecting to get an X resources file for xbanner. It will check the input for validity and flag errors.
