OPTIONS

19       --visual visual
20               Specify  which  visual  to use.  Legal values are the name of a
21               visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of  a  specific
22               visual.
23
24       --window
25               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
26
27       --root  Draw on the root window.
28
29       --window-id number
30               Draw on the specified window.
31
32       --count number
33               Number  of  tiles on the board. A value of "0" means "default".
34               The default number of tiles depends on the size  of  the  board
35               and  the  mode:  95% of total tiles for "tiles" mode and 80% of
36               total sticks for "sticks" mode (e.g. 76 tiles or 64 sticks  for
37               a 9x9 board).
38
39       --free number
40               Number of tiles missing from the board. See -count.
41
42       --size number
43               Number  of  tiles  on  each side of the board. Takes precedence
44               over -size-x and -size-y. Default: 9.
45
46       --size-x number
47               Width (in tiles) of the board. Default: 9.
48
49       --size-y number
50               Length (in tiles) of the board. Default: 9.
51
52       --spin number
53               Angular velocity for the rotation of the board.
54
55       --mode sticks
56               Draw hopping sticks instead of flipping tiles.
57
58       --mode tiles
59               Draw flipping tiles. This is the default.
60
61       --delay number
62               Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default:  20000  (0.02  sec‐
63               onds.).
64
65       --fps | --no-fps
66               Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
67
68       --wireframe
69               Only draw outlines.
70
71       --texture | --no-texture
72               Whether to texture the tiles with a screen grab or an image.
73

ENVIRONMENT

75       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
76
77       XENVIRONMENT
78               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
79               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
80
81       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
82               The window ID to use with --root.
