+# NAME
+
+swaybg - Background for Wayland
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+*swaybg* [options...]
+

+
+Without an output specified, appearance options apply to all outputs.

+these options.

+*-h, --help*
+	Show help message and quit.
+
+*-i, --image* <path>
+	Set the background image.
+
+*-m, --mode* <mode>

+	the additional mode _solid\_color_ to display only the background color,
