Systems depicted include Microsoft's Windows 95 +and Windows NT, Commodore-Amiga's AmigaDOS 1.3, SPARC Linux, SCO UNIX, the +Apple Macintosh (both the MacsBug debugger and the rarer "Sad Mac"), and the +Atari ST. +.PP +.SH OPTIONS +.I bsod +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 \-delay \fIdelay\fP +The delay between displaying one crash and another. +.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. +.SH X RESOURCES +Notable X resources supported include the following, which control which +hacks are displayed and which aren't. +.BR doWindows , +.BR doNT , +.BR doAmiga , +.BR doMac , +.BR doMacsBug , +.BR doSCO , +.BR doAtari , +and +.BR doSparcLinux . +Each of these is a Boolean resource, they all default to true, except for +doSparcLinux and doAtari, which are turned off by default, because they're +really not all that interesting looking unless you're a fan of those systems. +There aren't command-line options for these, so to change them, you'll need +to add entries to your .Xdefaults file, or use the -xrm option. +For example, to tell bsod not to show the NT crash: +.EX +bsod -xrm '*doNT: false' +.EE +.SH BUGS +Unlike the systems that the images are borrowed from, +.I bsod +does not require a reboot after running. +.PP +.I bsod +should also emulate more systems, but systems with interesting crash +graphics are not as common as one might hope. + +One I'd really like to see is a Unix system getting a kernel panic, +rebooting, and running +.BR fsck (8). +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR X (1), +.BR xscreensaver (1), +.BR http://www.microsoft.com/ , +.BR http://www.apple.com/ , +and +.BR http://www.sco.com/ , +.BR http://www.kernel.org/ , +and +.BR http://www.amiga.de/ . +.SH TRADEMARKS +Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Windows 95, and Microsoft Windows NT are all +registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation.
