15 The xflame program draws animated flames across the bottom of the
16 screen. The flames occasionally flare up. If a bitmap is specified,
17 that image will float above the flames, burning.
18
20 xflame 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 --foreground color or --fg color
39 The color of the flames; default red. (The background color is
40 always black.)
41
42 --bitmap filename
43 Specifies the bitmap file to use (a monochrome XBM file.) The
44 name "none" means not to use a bitmap at all. If unspecified,
45 a built-in image will be used.
46
47 The other options are arcane. If someone would care to document them,
48 that would be great.
49
50 --fps Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
51
53 DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
54
55 XENVIRONMENT
56 to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global
57 resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
58
59 XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
