NAME
       squiral - square spirals screensaver

SYNOPSIS
       squiral [-display host:display.screen] [-foreground color]
       [-background color] [-window] [-root]  [-mono]  [-install]
       [-noinstall] [-visual visual] [-fill percent] [-count num_
       ber] [-delay usec] [-disorder fraction] [-handedness frac_
       tion] [-cycle]

DESCRIPTION
       The squiral program displays interacting, spiral-producing
       automata

OPTIONS
       squiral accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

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

       -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.

       -fill percent
	       Specify the percent (0-100) of  the  screen  which
	       must  be	 filled	 before	 the  screen  is cleared.
	       60-80 percent are good values.

       -count number
	       The number of squiralies.  By default, the  screen
	       width divided by 32.

       -delay usec
	       The wait between steps.	The default is 1000.

       -disorder fraction
	       The  fraction of the time a squiraly will choose a
	       new direction.  The default is 0.005.

       -handedness fraction
	       The fraction of the time a squiraly will choose to
	       enter  lefthanded  mode.	  0.0  means  exclusively
	       right-handed behavior, 0.5 (the default) is a bal
	       ance between the two, and 1.0 is exclusively left-
	       handed behaviour.

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_MAN
	       AGER property.
