Gnometext module

Places a borderless transparent window on the desktop, and sets it to always below. This creates the effect that it is part of the desktop (if you want stuff to actually be on the desktop, see RootText). This window can then have text displayed in it.

ypos

The vertical position of the top left of the window (in pixels).

width

The horizontal size of the window (in pixels).

height

The vertical size of the window (in pixels).

background

A file to be used as the background image for the window.

shaded

Makes the window black if it doesn't have a background image, and darkens the background image if it does.

colour

The text colour.

font

The text font.

pattern_name, pattern, and pattern_action are experimental.
