-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The \fIqix\fP program bounces a series of line segments around its window.
-This is truly the swiss army chainsaw of qix programs. If you know of one
-with more display modes, I want to know about it.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.I qix
-accepts the following options:
-.TP 8
-.B \-window
-Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
-.TP 8
-.B \-root
-Draw on the root window.
-.TP 8
-.B \-mono
-If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.
-.TP 8
-.B \-install
-Install a private colormap for the window.
-.TP 8
-.B \-visual \fIvisual\fP
-Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class,
-or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
-.TP 8
-.B \-segments \fIinteger\fP
-How many line segments should be drawn. Default 50.
-.TP 8
-.B \-spread \fIinteger\fP
-How far apart the endpoints of one segment should be from the next.
-Default 8.
-.TP 8
-.B \-size \fIinteger\fP
-The maximum distance one endpoint of a segment is allowed to be from
-the opposite end of that segment. Default 0, meaning unlimited.
-.TP 8
-.B \-count \fIinteger\fP
-How many qixes to draw. Default 1.
-.TP 8
-.B \-color\-shift \fIdegrees\fP
-If on a color display, the color of the line segments will cycle through
-the spectrum. This specifies how far the hue of each segment should be
-from the next, in degrees on the HSV wheel. Default 3.
-.TP 8
-.B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP
-How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation.
-Default 25000, or about 0.025 seconds.
-.TP 8
-.B \-random
-The \fIqix\fP will wander around the screen semi-randomly. This is the
-default.
-.TP 8
-.B \-linear
-The opposite of \fI\-random\fP: the \fIqix\fP will travel in straight lines
-until it reaches a wall, and then it will bounce.
-.TP 8
-.B \-solid
-If this is specified, then the area between the line segments will be filled
-in with the appropriate color, instead of the \fIqix\fP simply being composed
-of one-pixel-wide line segments. This option looks really good in color.
-.TP 8
-.B \-hollow
-The opposite of \fI\-solid\fP; this is the default.
-.TP 8
-.B \-xor
-If this is specified, then qix segments will be drawn and erased with xor,
-instead of being drawn in some color and erased in the background color.
-This implies \fI\-mono\fP, in that only two colors can be used.
-.TP 8
-.B \-transparent
-If this is specified, and \fI\-count\fP is greater than 1, then each qix
-will be drawn in one color, and when they overlap, the colors will be mixed.
-This only works on \fBPseudoColor\fP displays. This looks best in
-conjuction with \fI\-solid\fP.
-.TP 8
-.B \-non\-transparent
-Turns off \fI\-transparent\fP.
-.TP 8
-.B \-additive
-If \fI\-transparent\fP is specified, then this option means that the colors
-will be mixed using an additive color model, as if the qixes were projected
-light. This is the default.
-.TP 8
-.B \-subtractive
-If \fI\-transparent\fP is specified, then this option means that the
-colors will be mixed using a subtractive color model, as if the qixes were
-translucent filters.
-.TP 8
-.B \-poly \fIint\fP
-How many vertices each qix-line should have: the default is 2, meaning the
-traditional qix line shape. Three will yield triangles, and so on.
-.TP 8
-.B \-gravity
-.TP 8
-.B \-no\-gravity
-Whether there should be downward attraction. For example, the
-options
-.B \-gravity \-linear
-will make everything move in nice smooth parabolas.
-Gravity is off by default.
-.SH ENVIRONMENT
-.PP
-.TP 8
-.B DISPLAY
-to get the default host and display number.
-.TP 8
-.B XENVIRONMENT
-to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources
-stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
