DESCRIPTION

14       The  kaleidocycle program draws a ring composed of tetrahedra connected

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       -count number
34               The  initial  number  of  segments.  Default  16.  Must be 8 or
35               greater, and an even number.
36
37       -speed number
38               Adjust the animation speed. 0.5 for half as fast, 2.0 for twice
39               as fast.
40
41       -wander Move the text around the screen.  This is the default.
42
43       -no-wander
44               Keep the text centered on the screen.
45
46       -spin   Which  axes  around which the text should spin.  The default is
47               "Z", meaning rotate the object the plane of the screen only.

49       -no-spin
50               Don't spin the text at all: the same as -spin "".
