NAME

       glcells - growing cells graphics hack

SYNOPSIS

       glcells	[-display  host:display.screen]  [-window]  [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-delay num] [-pause num] [-maxcells num] [-radius
       num] [-seeds num] [-quality num] [-minfood num] [-maxfood num] [-divideage num] [-mindist num] [-keepold] [-wireframe] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       The glcells program draws cells that divide exponentially, eat and eventually die.

OPTIONS

       glcells accepts the following options:

       -window Draw on a newly-created window.	This is the default.

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -install
	       Install a private colormap for the window.

       -visual visual
	       Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the name of a visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.

       -pause num
	       Specifies the pause at the end of the animation (all cells dead or maximum amount of cells reached). Unit is in frames, default 20.

       -maxcells num
	       Specifies the maximum number of cells on screen (dead cells also count, even if invisible). Default is 800.

       -radius num
	       Specifies the radius of the cells. Default is 40.

       -seeds num
	       Specifies the number of cells when animation starts. Default is 1.

       -quality num
	       Specifies subdivision quality of the spheres used to draw the cells [0...5]. Default is 3.

       -minfood num
	       Food is ditributed randomly on the screen (Yes, the cells need to eat). This parameter specifies the minimum  amount  of  food  per
	       pixel. Default is 5.

       -maxfood num
	       Food  is  ditributed  randomly  on the screen (Yes, the cells need to eat). This parameter specifies the maximum amount of food per
	       pixel. Default is 20.

       -divideage num
	       Specifies the minimum age in frames a cell needs to have before beeing able to divide. Default is 20

       -mindist num
	       Specifies the minimum distance between cells. Default 1.4

       -delay num
	       How long to pause between frames.  Default is 20000, or 0.02 second.

       -fps    Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

       -wireframe
	       Draw wireframe only.

       -keepold
	       Dead cells stay on screen.

ENVIRONMENT

       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
	       to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

NAME

       superquadrics - morphing 3d shapes.

SYNOPSIS

       superquadrics  [-display  host:display.screen]  [-visual  visual]  [-window]  [-root]  [-delay  number] [-spinspeed number] [-count number]
       [-cycles number] [-wireframe] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       Ed Mackey reports that he wrote the first version of this program in BASIC on a Commodore 64 in 1987, as a 320x200 black  and  white  wire-
       frame. Now it is GL and has specular reflections.

OPTIONS

       -visual visual
	       Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the name of a visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.

       -window Draw on a newly-created window.	This is the default.

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -delay number
	       Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 40000 (0.04 seconds.).

       -spinspeed number
	       0.1 - 15.0.  Default: 5.0.

       -count number
	       0 - 100.  Default: 25.

       -cycles number
	       0 - 100.  Default: 40.

       -wireframe
	       Render in wireframe instead of solid.

       -fps | -no-fps
	       Whether to show a frames-per-second display at the bottom of the screen.

ENVIRONMENT

       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
	       to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
