14 This program shows the view of an observer located inside a set of
15 points arranged to a 3D lattice. As the lattice rotates, various view-
16 throughs appear and evolve. A simple idea with interesting results.
17
19 cubicgrid accepts the following options:
20
21 -window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
22
23 -root Draw on the root window.
24
25 -install
26 Install a private colormap for the window.
27
28 -visual visual
29 Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a
30 visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific
31 visual.
32
33 -delay microseconds
34 How long to pause between frames. Default is 20000, or 0.02
35 second.
36
37 -mono Draw in black and white. If not used, a fixed all-color scheme
38 is chosen.
39
40 -speed number
41 The maximum speed of the rotation. The actual speed and axis
42 change smoothly for better effect. 0.5 - 10. The default is
43 1.0.
44
45 -zoom number
46 Size of the lattice. Ideally it should fill all the screen,
47 but one may find other values also interesting. 5 - 50. The
48 default of 20 should do for common screen aspect ratios.
49
50 -ticks number
51 The count of points drawn along every axis. 10 - 100. The
52 default is 30.
53
54 -bigdots
55 Draw the points twice as big.
56
57 -fps Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
58
60 DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
61
62 XENVIRONMENT
63 to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global
64 resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
