DESCRIPTION

16       The strange program draws strange attractors
17

OPTIONS

19       strange accepts the following options:
20
21       --window
22               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
23
24       --root  Draw on the root window.
25
26       --window-id number
27               Draw on the specified window.
28
29       --mono  If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.
30
31       --install
32               Install a private colormap for the 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       --ncolors integer
40               How  many  colors  should  be used (if possible).  Default 100.
41               The colors are chosen randomly.
42
43       --points integer
44               Change the number of  points/iterations  each  frame.   Default
45               5500.   More  than  6000 activates the accumulator, which makes
46               parts of the image brighter or darker depending  on  how  often
47               the attractor hits each pixel.
48
49       --point-size integer
50               Changes the size of individual points.  Default 1.
51
52       --zoom float
53               Zooms in or out.  Default 0.9.
54
55       --brightness float
56               Adjusts the brightness for accumulator mode.  Default 1.0.
57
58       --motion-blur float
59               Adds motion blur.  Default 3.0, no motion blur is 1.0.
60
61       --fps   Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
62

67               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
68               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
69
70       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
71               The window ID to use with --root.
