 * everything gears.wallpaper functions can manage (cairo surface, cairo pattern string)
 * a list containing any of the elements above
 
+To set up for multiple screens, two possible methods are:
+* Call the `setup` function for each screen, passing the appropriate configuration and `screen` arg
+* Call the `setup` function once, passing a table of screens as the `screen` arg. This applies the same configuration to all screens in the table
