NAME
endgame - endgame chess screensaver SYNOPSIS
endgame [-display host:display.screen] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-delay microseconds] [-fps] DESCRIPTION
endgame replays a brilliant chess ending OPTIONS
endgame accepts the following options: -window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default. -root Draw on the root window. -wire wireframe mode might be to your liking. -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. -fps Display a running tally of how many frames per second are being rendered. In conjunction with -delay 0, this can be a useful benchmark of your GL performance. 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. BUGS
It's not unknown for this and other OpenGL hacks to fail under hardware accelaration (UtahGLX) and take the X server with them. Texture images must be 16x16 or 32x32 or 64x64 etc. SEE ALSO
