wmsetbg and display

[Lance Hoffmeyer <lance@augustmail.com>]

I am trying to run wmsetbg from a console while X is running but I keep getting
"could not open display errors".
 
 
wmsetbg -display localhost:0.0 -e image.gif -w 2
wmsetbg -display localhost:0   -e image.gif -w 2
 

What am I doing wrong?
