create a bitmap for win32

Asked by holli in Perl Programming Language, Adobe Type Manager, Font Creator

Tags: win32, bitmap, create

hi there,

normally i would try to do this on myself, but i have very few time these days so i put this into the community.

i need a script that is to be run at windows-startup and that should do the following:

a) determine username and computername
b) create a bitmap with that information (eg. with text "<username> on <computername>" and black background)
c) set that bitmap as the background image (wallpaper)

i know i could solve a) and c) using windows-api, but i have no clue about part b).
i just installed imager.pm and image-magick.pm but did not have time to read their documentation.

any help appreciated,

tx holli
