7       from an initial creation.

DESCRIPTION

15       A system of path tracing particles evolves continuously from an initial
16       circular  creation.   Ages  of  darkness  play arbitrarily with ages of
17       light.

OPTIONS

20       binaryring accepts the following options:
21
22       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
23
24       -install
25               Install a private colormap for the window.
26
27       -mono   If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.
28
29       -noinstall
30               Don't install a private colormap for the window.
31
32       -root   Draw on the root window.
33
34       -visual visual
35               Specify which visual to use. Legal values are  the  name  of  a
36               visual  class  or  the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific
37               visual.
38
39       -window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
40
41       -window-id window-id
42               Specify which window id to use.
43
44       -color (Default)
45               Particles have random generated colors  that  gradually  change
46               over time.
47
48       -no-color
49               Use the original black and white visualization.
50
51       -growth-delay delayms (Default: 10000)
52               Delay in ms between growth cycles. More delay, slower (but less
53               CPU intensive).
54
55       -particles-number particles (Default: 5000)
56               The number of particles in the system. With more particles  the
57               fps can also be affected.
58
59       -ring-radius radius (Default: 40)
60               The radius of the ring where the particles are born, in pixels.
61

ENVIRONMENT

63       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
64
65       XENVIRONMENT
66               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
67               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
