Legal values are the name of a visual class, +or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual. +.TP 8 +.B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP +How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation. +Default 100000, or about 1/10th second. +.TP 8 +.B \-observer-z \fIint\fP +How far away the observer is from the center of the cube (the cube is one +unit per side.)
