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"
