SYNOPSIS

9       slidescreen  [-display host:display.screen] [-background color] [-grid-

11       usecs] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual]

DESCRIPTION

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

OPTIONS

25       slidescreen accepts the following options:
26
27       -window Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
28
29       -root   Draw on the root window.
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       -grid-size pixels
40               The size of the grid cells.  Default 70 pixels.
41
42       -ibw pixels
43               The size of the "gutter" between grid cells.  Default 4 pixel.
44
45       -increment pixels
46               How  many  pixels by which a piece should be moved when sliding
47               to a new location.  Default 10 pixels.
48
49       -delay microseconds
50               How much of a delay should be introduced between steps  of  the
51               animation  of the motion of each segment.  Default 50000, which
52               is 0.05 seconds.  This is closely  related  to  the  -increment
53               parameter.
54
55       -delay2 microseconds
56               How much of a delay should be introduced between the end of the
57               motion of one segment  and  the  beginning  of  the  motion  of
58               another.  Default 1000000, which is one second.
59

ENVIRONMENT

61       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
62
63       XENVIRONMENT
64               to  get  the  name of a resource file that overrides the global
