DESCRIPTION

15       The hypercube program displays a wireframe projection  of  a  hypercube
16       which is rotating at user-specified rates around any or all of its four
17       axes.
18

OPTIONS

20       hypercube accepts the following options:
21
22       -window Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
23
24       -root   Draw on the root window.
25
26       -mono   If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.
27
28       -install
29               Install a private colormap for the window.
30
31       -visual visual
32               Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the  name  of  a
33               visual  class,  or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific
34               visual.
35
36       -delay microseconds
37               How much of a delay should be introduced between steps  of  the
38               animation.  Default 100000, or about 1/10th second.
39
40       -observer-z int
41               How  far  away the observer is from the center of the cube (the
42               cube is one unit per side.)  Default 5.
43
44       -color0 color
45
46       -color1 color
47
48       -color2 color
49
50       -color3 color
51
52       -color4 color
53
54       -color5 color
55
56       -color6 color
57
58       -color7 color
59               The colors used to draw the line segments bordering  the  eight
60               faces  of  the  cube.  Some of the faces have only two of their
61               border-lines drawn in the specified color, and  some  have  all
62               four.
63
64       -xw float
65
66       -xy float
67
68       -xz float
69
70       -yw float
71
72       -yz float
73
74       -zw float
75               The amount that the cube should be rotated around the specified
76               axis at each frame of the animation, expressed in  0.001  radi‐
77               ans.  These should be small floating-point values (less than 50
78               works best.)  Default: xy=3, xz=5, yw=10.
79

ENVIRONMENT

81       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
82
83       XENVIRONMENT
84               to get the name of a resource file that  overrides  the  global
85               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
