OPTIONS

20       kaleidocycle accepts the following options:
21
22       --window
23               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
24
25       --root  Draw on the root window.
26
27       --window-id number
28               Draw on the specified window.
29
30       --install
31               Install a private colormap for the window.
32
33       --visual visual
34               Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the  name  of  a
35               visual  class,  or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific
36               visual.
37
38       --count number
39               The initial number of segments.  Default  16.   Must  be  8  or
40               greater, and an even number.
41
42       --speed number
43               Adjust the animation speed. 0.5 for half as fast, 2.0 for twice
44               as fast.
45
46       --wander
47               Move the text around the screen.  This is the default.
48
49       --no-wander
50               Keep the text centered on the screen.
51
52       --spin  Which axes around which the text should spin.  The  default  is
53               "Z", meaning rotate the object the plane of the screen only.
54
55       --no-spin
56               Don't spin the text at all: the same as --spin "".

59               Render in wireframe instead of solid.
