This is the default. +.TP 8 +.B \-root +Draw on the root window. +.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 \-grid-size \fIpixels\fP +The size of the grid cells. Default 70 pixels. +.TP 8 +.B \-ibw \fIpixels\fP +The size of the "gutter" between grid cells. Default 1 pixel. +.TP 8 +.B \-increment \fIpixels\fP +How many pixels by which a piece should be moved when sliding to a new +location. Default 10 pixels. +.TP 8 +.B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP +How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation of +the motion of each segment. Default 50000, which is 0.05 seconds. This +is closely related to the \fI\-increment\fP parameter. +.TP 8 +.B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP +How much of a delay should be introduced between the end of the motion of +one segment and the beginning of the motion of another. Default 1000000, +which is one second. +.SH RESOURCES +On some systems (currently, only SGIs), this program can, instead of grabbing +a desktop image, grab a frame of video from an external camera and manipulate +that instead. The following resources control that. +.PP +.TP 8 +.B grabVideoProbability \fR(Float)\fP +What portion of the time to grab video rather than a screen image, +between 0.0 and 1.0. Defaults to 0.5, or half the time. +.TP 8 +.B videoDevice \fR(Integer)\fP +The number of the default video input device to check first. If unspecified, +the default camera (from videopanel(1)) will be checked first. After that, all +other available video input devices will be checked in order. + +The first one which produces a non-black image will be used. If all images +are black, the others will be re-checked a few times before giving up and +falling back to simply grabbing a desktop image (but note that this takes a +few seconds, so if you don't actually have any video sources hooked up, you +should consider turning off video grabbing by setting +\fBgrabVideoProbability\fP to 0.0.) +.TP 8 +.B videoGain \fR(Float)\fP +The amount by which to brighten the grabbed image. This defaults to 2.2. +.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 SEE ALSO +.BR X (1), +.BR xscreensaver (1) +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright \(co 1992 by Jamie Zawinski.
