19 This program shows the view of an observer located inside a set of points
20 arranged to a 3D lattice. As the lattice rotates, various view-throughs appear
21 and evolve. A simple idea with interesting results.
24 accepts the following options:
27 Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
30 Draw on the root window.
33 Install a private colormap for the window.
35 .B \-visual \fIvisual\fP\fP
36 Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class,
37 or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
39 .B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP
40 How long to pause between frames. Default is 20000, or 0.02 second.
43 Draw in black and white. If not used, a fixed all-color scheme is chosen.
45 .B \-speed \fInumber\fP
46 The maximum speed of the rotation. The actual speed and axis change smoothly
47 for better effect. 0.5 - 10. The default is 1.0.
49 .B \-zoom \fInumber\fP
50 Size of the lattice. Ideally it should fill all the screen, but one may find
51 other values also interesting. 5 - 50. The default of 20 should do for common
54 .B \-ticks \fInumber\fP
55 The count of points drawn along every axis. 10 - 100. The default is 30.
58 Draw the points twice as big.
61 Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
66 to get the default host and display number.
69 to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources
70 stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
