25 There is a tentacled abomination in the sky. From above you it devours.
28 .B \-visual \fIvisual\fP
29 Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class,
30 or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
33 Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
36 Draw on the root window.
39 Delay between frames, in microseconds. Default 30000.
41 .B \-speed \fIratio\fP
42 Less than 1 for slower, greater than 1 for faster. Default 1.
45 How many tentacles. Default 8.
47 .B \-thickness \fIratio\fP
48 Less than 1 for thinner tentacles, greater than 1 for thicker. Default 1.
50 .B \-length \fIratio\fP
51 Length of the tentacles. Default 9.
53 .B \-wiggliness \fIratio\fP
54 A measure of how bendy the tentacles are. Smaller numbers result in
55 smoother flexing; larger numbers make it "crinkly". Default 0.35.
57 .B \-flexibility \fIratio\fP
58 Another measure of how bendy the tentacles are. Smaller numbers
59 result in straighter tentacles; larger numbers result in more extreme

67 The colors of the various parts of the tentacle. Default green
72 .B \-segments \fIint\fP
73 Larger numbers increase number of polygons in the object mesh.
77 Make the tentacles appear faceted instead of smooth.
80 Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
85 to get the default host and display number.
88 to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources
89 stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
