You know i have been somewhat reluctant about the user supplied 
background (using the core code image reading functions for something 
there were't intended for...)

But of course using libxpm isn't an option here. :-)

Maybe we should just write a simple PPM reader that can be used by all 
display modes for reading the background image.
