NAME

       spheremonics - 3d spherical harmonic shapes.

SYNOPSIS

       spheremonics  [-display	host:display.screen]  [-visual	visual]  [-window] [-root] [-delay number] [-duration number] [-resolution number]
       [-wander] [-no-spin] [-spin [XYZ]] [-wireframe] [-no-smooth] [-no-grid] [-bbox] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       These closed objects are commonly called spherical harmonics, although they are only remotely related to the mathematical definition  found
       in the solution to certain wave functions, most notable the eigenfunctions of angular momentum operators.

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: 30000 (0.03 seconds.).

       -duration number
	       Duration.  5 - 1000.  Default: 100.

       -resolution number
	       Resolution.  5 - 100.  Default: 64.

       -wander | -no-wander
	       Whether the object should wander around the screen.

       -spin [XYZ]
	       Around which axes should the object spin?

       -no-spin
	       Don't spin.

       -wireframe
	       Render in wireframe instead of solid.

       -smooth | -no-smooth
	       Smoothed Lines.	Boolean.

       -grid | -no-grid
	       Draw Grid.  Boolean.

       -bbox | -no-bbox
	       Draw Bounding Box.  Boolean.

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

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.
