  The file you enclosed in your posting is a .xbm file (X bitmap) to be used
with any X Windows environment. I brought it up on mine, and it's says (where
a '*' is a solid block):


          *BUBBLEGUM
          *CRISIS
          MEGA-TOKYO
               2032-AD

          A STORY OF
          KNIGHT SABERS


The sizes shown in the define statements are the dimensions of the bitmap in
pixels. File your clip as bgum.xbm (or whatever.xbm) and use:

                   xsetroot -bitmap bgum.xbm

to display it on the background of your X terminal (if you have one).
