A +geodesic sphere is an icosohedron whose equilateral faces are sub-divided +into non-equilateral triangles to more closely approximate a sphere. + +The animation shows the equilateral triangles subdivided into four +coplanar equilateral triangles; and then inflated outward, causing the +sub-triangles to no longer be equilateral, but to more closely +approximate the surface of a sphere. +.SH OPTIONS +.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 \-window +Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default. +.TP 8 +.B \-root +Draw on the root window. +.TP 8 +.B \-mode mesh | solid | stellated | stellated2 | wire +Face/edge display style.

Default: 30000 (0.03 seconds). +.TP 8 +.B \-speed \fInumber\fP +Animation speed. 2.0 means twice as fast, 0.5 means half as fast. +.TP 8 +.B \-count \fInumber\fP +Depth (frequency) of the geodesic sphere. Default: 4. +.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 2013 by Jamie Zawinski.
