.SH DESCRIPTION
The goal of \fInerverot\fP is to be interesting and compelling to
-watch, yet induce a state of nervous edginess in the viewer.
+watch, yet induce a state of nervous edginess in the viewer. This manpage
+describes v1.3 of the program.
.SH OPTIONS
.I nerverot
accepts the following options:
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 \-db
+.B \-no-db
+Use double-buffering (or not, respectively). Double-buffering may make
+things look better for larger line widths and/or larger numbers of
+blots, but "better" may equate to yielding less of the desired edginess
+effect. You'll be calmer after watching the double-buffered variant;
+you're more likely to go into epileptic fits with it off. Hence, it
+is off (false) by default, resource \fIdoubleBuffer\fP.
+.TP 8
.B \-colors \fIinteger\fP
How many colors should be used (if possible). The colors
form a smooth ramp between two randomly-chosen colors. Defaults to 4,
The interframe delay, in microseconds. Defaults to 10000, resource
\fIdelay\fP.
.TP 8
+.B \-max-iters \fIinteger\fP
+The maximum number of iterations (frames) before a new model is
+generated. The actual number of iterations per model is a random number
+between 1 and this value. Defaults to 1200, resource
+\fImaxIters\fP.
+.TP 8
.B \-count \fIinteger\fP
How many "blots" to draw at a time. This number may be rounded down to
fit the particularly chosen model, and has a fixed minimum per-model.
.SH BUGS
.I nerverot
should have more models.
+.TP 8
+XDBE should be detected and used, if available.
