DESCRIPTION

15       Loads several random images, and displays them as if lying in a  random
16       pile.   The  pile is periodically reshuffled, with new images coming in
17       and old ones being thrown out.
18
19       This program requires a good video card  capable  of  supporting  large
20       textures.
21
22       To specify the directory that images are loaded from, run xscreensaver-
23       demo(1) and click on the "Advanced" tab.
