DESCRIPTION

15       The slidescreen program takes an image, divides it into a grid, deletes
16       a  random  square  of  that  grid,  and then randomly slides one of the
17       neighbors of this "hole" into the hole (and repeat.)
18
19       The image that it manipulates will be grabbed from the portion  of  the
20       screen underlying the window, or from the system's video input, or from
21       a random file on disk, as indicated by the grabDesktopImages, grabVide‐
22       oFrames,  and  chooseRandomImages  options in the ~/.xscreensaver file;
23       see xscreensaver-settings(1) for more details.

OPTIONS

26       slidescreen accepts the following options:
27
28       -window Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
29
30       -root   Draw on the root window.
31
32       -install
33               Install a private colormap for the window.
34
35       -visual visual
36               Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the  name  of  a
37               visual  class,  or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific
38               visual.
39
40       -grid-size pixels
41               The size of the grid cells.  Default 70 pixels.
42
43       -ibw pixels
44               The size of the "gutter" between grid cells.  Default 4 pixel.
45
46       -increment pixels
47               How many pixels by which a piece should be moved  when  sliding
48               to a new location.  Default 10 pixels.
49
50       -delay microseconds
51               How  much  of a delay should be introduced between steps of the
52               animation of the motion of each segment.  Default 50000,  which
53               is 0.05 seconds.  This is closely related to the -increment pa‐
54               rameter.
55
56       -delay2 microseconds
57               How much of a delay should be introduced between the end of the
58               motion  of  one  segment and the beginning of the motion of an‐
59               other.  Default 1000000, which is one second.
60
61       -duration seconds
62               How long to run before loading a new image.  Default  120  sec‐
63               onds.
64
65       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
66

ENVIRONMENT

68       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
69
70       XENVIRONMENT
71               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
72               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
