-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The \fIstarwars\fP program runs another program to generate a stream of
-text, then animates that text receeding into the background at an angle,
-in front of a star field.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.I starwars
-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 \-install
-Install a private colormap for the window.
-.TP 8
-.B \-visual \fIvisual\fP\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 \-program \fIsh-command\fP
-The command to run to generate the text to display. This option may be
-any string acceptable to /bin/sh. The program will be run at the end of
-a pipe, and any characters that it prints to \fIstdout\fP will be printed
-on the starwars window. If the program exits, it will be launched again
-after we have processed all the text it produced.
-
-Note that starwars is \fInot\fP a terminal emulator: programs that try to
-directly address the screen will not do what you might expect. This
-program merely draws the characters on the screen left to right, top
-to bottom, in perspective. Lines (may) wrap when they reach the right
-edge.
-
-In other words, programs like
-.BR fortune (1)
-will work, but programs like
-.BR top (1)
-won't.
-
-Some examples:
-.EX
-starwars -program 'cat /usr/src/linux*/README'
-starwars -columns 30 -program 'ping www.starwars.com'
-starwars -left -no-wrap -program 'ps -auxwwf'
-starwars -left -no-wrap -columns 45 -program 'top -bn1'
-starwars -left -columns 40 -program 'od -txC /dev/urandom'
-starwars -font fixed -program 'od -txC /dev/urandom'
-.EE
-.TP 8
-.B \-size \fIinteger\fP
-How large a font to use, in points. (Well, in some arbitrary unit
-we're calling "points" for the sake of argument.) Default: 24.
-.TP 8
-.B \-columns \fIinteger\fP
-How many columns of text should be visible on the bottom line of the
-screen. Default: 60.
-
-Only one of \fI\-columns\fP and \fI\-size\fP may be specified;
-if both are specified, \fI\-columns\fP takes priority.
-.TP 8
-.B \-wrap
-Word-wrap lines when they reach the rightmost column. This is the default.
-.TP 8
-.B \-no\-wrap
-Do not word-wrap: just let the lines go off the right side of the screen.
-.TP 8
-.B \-left | \-center | \-right
-Whether to align the text flush left, centered, or flush right.
-The default is centered.
-.TP 8
-.B \-lines \fIinteger\fP
-How many lines should be allowed to be on the screen before they fall off
-the end. The default is 125.
-.TP 8
-.B \-spin \fIfloat\fP
-The star field on the background slowly rotates. This is how fast.
-The default is 0.03.
-.TP 8
-.B \-steps \fIinteger\fP
-How many steps should be used to scroll a single line. The default is 35.
-If the animation looks jerky to you, increase this number.
-.TP 8
-.B \-delay \fIusecs\fP
-The delay between steps of the animation; default is 40000 (1/25th second.)
-.TP 8
-.B \-font \fIfont-name\fP
-The name of the font to use. For best effect, this should be a large
-font (at least 36 points.) The bigger the font, the better looking the
-characters will be. Note that the size of this font affects only the
-clarity of the characters, not their size on the screen: for that, use
-the \fI\-size\fP or \fI\-columns\fP options.
-
-Default: -*-utopia-bold-r-normal-*-*-720-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
-.TP 8
-.B \-no\-textures
-Instead of texture-mapping a real font to render the text, use a
-built-in font composed of line segments. On graphics cards without
-texture support, the line-segment font will have much better
-performance.
-.TP 8
-.B \-no\-smooth
-When using the line-segment font, turn off anti-aliasing of the lines
-used to draw the font. This will make the text blockier, but may
-improve performance.
-.TP 8
-.B \-no\-thick
-When using the line-segment font, turn off use of thick lines for the
-characters that are close to the foreground. This will make the text
-appear unnaturally skinny, but may improve performance.
-.TP 8
-.B \-fps
-Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
-.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.
