XFLIP(6) Games Manual XFLIP(6) NAME
xflip, meltdown - astonish your friends with interesting X effects SYNOPSIS
xflip [-planes] [-vert] [-oblic] [-fast | -random] [-times number] [-display displayname] meltdown [-planes] [-display displayname] [-delay x] [-wait n | -wait 0] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the xflip, and meltdown commands. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used by others), because the original program does not have a manual page. The programs play with the X display, producing some interesting effects. One traditional use of these commands is to have them run and affect someone else's X display, as a practical joke. OPTIONS
-display displayname The X display to operate on. -planes Operate on a singleplane at a time. -vert Flip the screen vertically. -oblic Flip the screen vertically and horizontally at the same time. -random Flip small random peices of the screen instead of the while display. -times number Specifies the number of peices of the screen to flip when -random is used. Default is 300. -delay x Meltdown may run too fast on fast computers to be fully appreciated; this can be used to slow it down. If specified, every x times the display is updated, a 1 microsecond delay will be inserted. The default is no delay at all. Reasonable values for x are in the 20 to 200 range. -wait n Makes meltdown wait for n seconds after the screen is totally black. If you pass 0 to -wait, it will wait until you press a key or mouse button. AUTHOR

If two number arguments are supplied the first is used for X magniications and the second is used for Y magnification. Magnification should be greater than 0. -x Mirror horizontally. -y Mirror vertically. -xy Exchange X and Y axes before any magnification is performed. -geometry geometry Size and position xzoom's window. -source geometry Size and position the initial source area which is magnified. The dimensions of this area are multiplied by the mag- nification to get the size of xzoom's window.
