18 is an imitation of Rubiks\' Snake, using OpenGL.
21 accepts the following options:
24 Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
27 Draw on the root window.
30 Install a private colormap for the window.
32 .B \-visual \fIvisual\fP\fP
33 Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class,
34 or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
37 Display a running tally of how many frames per second are being rendered.
38 In conjunction with \fB\-delay 0\fP, this can be a useful benchmark of
42 Display the snake in wireframe mode, rather than the default solid mode.
45 Use the alternate colour scheme for the snake. Shape identification using
46 colour will be disabled.
48 .B -angvel \fIangular\fP
49 Change the speed at which the snake morphs to a new shape.
51 .B -explode \fIdistance\fP
52 Change the distance between the nodes of a snake.
54 .B \-statictime \fImilliseconds\fP
55 Change the time between morphs.
57 .B \-yangvel \fIangle\fP
58 Change the angle of rotation around the Y axis per frame.
60 .B \-zangvel \fIangle\fP
61 Change the angle of rotation around the Z axis per frame.
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.
73 \fB/usr/share/glsnake/*.glsnake\fP
74 This XScreenSaver will attempt to read model files installed with the interactive \fBglsnake\fP.

84 The snake will happily intersect itself while morphing (this is not a bug).
86 The rotation/camera position sucks.
