DESCRIPTION
The spotlight program takes an image and exposes small
sections of it as if through a wandering spotlight beam.
The image that it manipulates will be grabbed from the
portion of the screen underlying the window, or from the
system's video input, or from a random file on disk, as
indicated by the grabDesktopImages, grabVideoFrames, and
chooseRandomImages options in the ~/.xscreensaver file;
see xscreensaver-demo(1) for more details.
OPTIONSspotlight accepts the following options:
-window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the
default.

-mono If on a color display, pretend we're on a
monochrome display.
