.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fIattraction\fP program has several visually different modes of
operation, all of which are based on the interactions of a set of control
.TP 8
.B \-segments integer
If in \fIlines\fP or \fIpolygons\fP mode, how many sets of line segments
-or polygons should be drawn. Default 100. This has no effect in \fIballs\fP
+or polygons should be drawn. Default 500. This has no effect in \fIballs\fP
mode. If \fIsegments\fP is 0, then no segments will ever be erased (this
is only useful in color.)

One interesting thing to try is

Give it a few seconds to settle down into a stable clump, and then move

-.B \-mouse
-This will cause the mouse to be considered a control point; it will not be
-drawn, but it will influence the other points, so you can wave the mouse
-and influence the images being created.

-.B \-no-mouse
-Turns off \fB\-mouse\fP.

-.B \-mouse-size integer
-In \fB\-mouse\fP mode, this sets the mass of the mouse (analagously to the
-\fB\-size\fP parameter.)

this, it will be treated as though there were .9 viscosity until it is
under the limit. This stops the balls from continually accelerating (which
