@node Overview
@chapter Overview
@command{splashtool} is a simple tool that lets you create an almost
exact image of how your SYSLINUX bootloader configurations will reader
if you are using @command{vesamenu}, so that you can do edits to the
background image and the @file{syslinux.cfg} so that you do not need
to use a virtual machine and real machine that you reboot.
@node Invoking
@chapter Invoking
The @command{splashtool} takes two manditory arguments follwed by one
optional argument.
The first argument is the @file{syslinux.cfg} file you want to create
a preview for, the @var{background} and @var{font} specified in the
file should be relattive to @file{syslinux.cfg}, but @command{splashtool}
also accepts absolute paths.
The second argument is output PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file.
The third argument is optional is should start with either `-w' or `--w',
if you want to create a preview of how it will look on a widescreen
monitor. @command{splashtool} assumes the image is 640 by 480 pixels,
and the output for widescreen is 853 by 480 pixels.
No other option should be used, not even `--'.
