NAME

spheremonics - 3d spherical harmonic shapes.

SYNOPSIS

spheremonics [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual]
[--window] [--root] [--window-id number] [--delay number] [--duration
number] [--resolution number] [--wander] [--no-spin] [--spin [XYZ]]
[--wireframe] [--no-smooth] [--no-grid] [--bbox] [--fps]

DESCRIPTION

These closed objects are commonly called spherical harmonics,
although they are only remotely related to the mathematical
definition found in the solution to certain wave functions, most
notable the eigenfunctions of angular momentum operators.

OPTIONS

--visual visual
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.

--window
Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.

--root Draw on the root window.

--window-id number
Draw on the specified window.

--delay number
Per-frame delay, in microseconds. Default: 30000 (0.03
seconds.).

--duration number
Duration. 5 - 1000. Default: 100.

--resolution number
Resolution. 5 - 100. Default: 64.

--wander | --no-wander
Whether the object should wander around the screen.

--spin [XYZ]
Around which axes should the object spin?

--no-spin
Don't spin.

--wireframe
Render in wireframe instead of solid.

--smooth | --no-smooth
Smoothed Lines. Boolean.

--grid | --no-grid
Draw Grid. Boolean.

--bbox | --no-bbox
Draw Bounding Box. Boolean.

--fps Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

ENVIRONMENT

DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

XENVIRONMENT
to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global
resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
The window ID to use with --root.
