NAME
       sballs - draws balls spinning like crazy in GL

SYNOPSIS
       sballs  [-display  host:display.screen] [-window] [-root] [-visual vis‐
       ual]  [-delay  microseconds]  [-object  object_number]	[-count	  num‐
       ber_of_spheres] [-cycles sphere_speed] [-size viewport_size] [-texture]
       [-no-texture] [-wireframe]  [-no-wireframe]  [-trackmouse]  [-no-track‐
       mouse] [-fps] [-no-fps]

DESCRIPTION
       The  sballs  program draws an animation of balls spinning like crazy in
       GL.

OPTIONS
       sballs accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -install
	       Install a private colormap for the window.

       -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.

       -fps    Display a running tally of how many frames per second are being
	       rendered.   In  conjunction with -delay 0, this can be a useful
	       benchmark of your GL performance.

       -object object_number
	       Specify how  the	 spheres  are  grouped	(forming  an  object).
	       Objects are:

       1	 tetrahedron

       2	 cube. This is the default.

       3	 octahedron

       4	 dodecahedron

       5	 icosahedron

       6	 plane

       7	 pyramid

       8	 star

       -count number_of_spheres
	       Specify how much spheres are drawn in the selected object.

       -size viewport_size
	       Viewport	 of  GL scene is specified size if greater than 32 and
	       less than screensize. Default value is 0, meaning full  screen‐
	       size.

       -count number_of_particles
	       Specify	how much fire particles are drawn. A very special case
	       is 0 wich means that you get rain !

       -texture
	       Show a textured background and spheres. This is the default.

       -no-texture
	       Disables texturing the animation.

       -trackmouse
	       Let the mouse be a joystick to change the view  of  the	anima‐
	       tion.  This implies -no-wander.

       -no-trackmouse
	       Disables mouse tracking. This is the default.

       -wire   Draw a wireframe rendition of the spheres.

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.
