16 This program animates a puzzle called Rubik's Mirror Blocks. The moves
17 are chosen randomly.
18
20 rubikblocks accepts the following options:
21
22 -window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
23
24 -root Draw on the root window.
25
26 -install
27 Install a private colormap for the window.
28
29 -visual visual
30 Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a
31 visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific
32 visual.
33
34 -delay microseconds
35 How long to pause between frames. Default is 20000, or 0.02
36 second.
37
38 -texture
39 Use texture maps. This is the default.
40
41 -no-texture
42 Use solid colors. Looks a bit weird.
43
44 -mono Disable both texture maps and colors. Ditto.
45
46 -wireframe
47 Only draw outlines. Outlines of each piece, not only the whole
48 object, are drawn.
49
50 -spin Spin the whole object around X, Y and Z axes. This is the de‐
51 fault.
52
53 -no-spin
54 Do not spin, stay in the same tilt all the time.
55
56 -wander Move the object around the screen. This is the default.
57
58 -no-wander

62 Shuffle the puzzle randomly at startup. This is the default.
63
64 -no-randomize
65 Do not shuffle at startup, begin at the shape of cube.
66
67 -spinspeed number
68 The relative speed of spinning. Default is 1.0.
69
70 -rotspeed number
71 The relative speed of the moves. Default is 3.0. Setting to ≤
72 0.0 makes the object stay at one configuration.
73
74 -wanderspeed number
75 The relative speed of wandering around the screen. Default is
76 0.02.
77
78 -wait number
79 How long to stay at final position after each move. The mean‐
80 ing of the argument is again relative. Default is 40.0.
81
82 -cubesize number
83 Size of the object. Value of 3.0 fills roughly all the screen.
84
85 -fps Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
86
88 DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
89
