help
PSplash is a userspace graphical boot splash screen for
mainly embedded Linux devices supporting a 16bpp or 32bpp
framebuffer. It has few dependencies (just libc), supports
basic images and text and handles rotation. Its visual look
is configurable by basic source changes.
Also included is a 'client' command utility for sending
information to psplash such as boot progress information.
Start the drawing process with 'psplash -n&' as early as
possible. Note: psplash creates a FIFO in /tmp for
communication with psplash-write.
Usage:
* Set progress bar to 50 percent:
psplash-write "PROGRESS 50"
* Display message "foobar" above progress bar:
psplash-write "MSG foobar"
* Terminate psplash:
psplash-write "QUIT"
