33               visual.
34
35       -fill percent
36               Specify the percent (0-100) of the screen which must be  filled
37               before the screen is cleared.  60-80 percent are good values.
38
39       -count number
40               The number of squiralies.  By default, the screen width divided
41               by 32.
42

51               The  fraction of the time a squiraly will choose to enter left‐
52               handed mode.  0.0 means exclusively right-handed behavior,  0.5
53               (the  default)  is a balance between the two, and 1.0 is exclu‐
54               sively left-handed behaviour.
