XScreenSaver(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   XScreenSaver(1)

NAME

       noseguy - a little guy with a big nose wanders around being witty

SYNOPSIS

       noseguy	[-display  host:display.screen]  [-foreground  color] [-background color] [-text-foreground color] [-text-background color] [-font
       font] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-mode mode] [-program program] [-filename le] [-text text]

DESCRIPTION

       A little man with a big nose and a hat runs around spewing out messages to the screen.  This code (and its bitmaps) were extracted from the
       xnlock program.

OPTIONS

       noseguy 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.

       -font font
	       The font used for the messages.

       -mode [ program | file | string ]
	       In  program  mode,  the	messages  are gotten by running a program.  The program used is controlled by the -program option, and the
	       .program resource.

	       In filename mode, the message used is the contents of a file.  The file used is controlled by the -file option, and  the  .filename
	       resource.

	       In  string  mode, the message is whatever was specified on the command line as the -text option, or in the resource database as the
	       .text resource.

       -program program
	       If mode is program (the default), then this program will be run periodically, and its output will be the text of the messages.  The
	       default program is "fortune -s", but yow is also a good choice.

       -filename file
	       If mode is file, then the contents of this file will be used for all messages.

       -text string
	       If mode is string, then this text will be used for all messages.

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.
