NAME

       pedal - pretty geometric picture program

SYNOPSIS

       pedal  [-display  host:display.screen] [-foreground color] [-background color] [-window] [-root] [-delay seconds] [-maxlines number] [-fad-
       edelay useconds] [-mono] [-install] [-visual visual]

DESCRIPTION

       The pedal program displays pretty geometric pictures.

OPTIONS

       pedal accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -foreground color
	       The color for the foreground.  Default is white.

       -background color
	       The color for the background.  Default is black.

       -delay seconds
	       The number of seconds to pause between each picture.

       -maxlines number
	       The maximum number of lines in the drawing.  Good values are between 20 and 2000.  Maximum value is 16K.

       -fadedelay microseconds
	       The number of micro seconds to take when fading in and out.

       -mono   Don't do fading.  Pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       To make your X server grunt under load, and to impress your friends, try pedal -mono -delay 0 -maxlines 100.

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

       hypercube - 2d projection of a 4d object

SYNOPSIS

       hypercube  [-display  host:display.screen]  [-foreground color] [-background color] [-color[0-7] color] [-xy float] [-xz float] [-yz float]
       [-xw float] [-yw float] [-zw float] [-observer-z int] [-delay usecs] [-window] [-root] [-mono] [-install] [-visual visual]

DESCRIPTION

       The hypercube program displays a wireframe projection of a hypercube which is rotating at user-specified rates around any  or  all  of  its
       four axes.

OPTIONS

       hypercube accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -mono   If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       -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.

       -delay microseconds
	       How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation.  Default 100000, or about 1/10th second.

       -observer-z int
	       How far away the observer is from the center of the cube (the cube is one unit per side.)  Default 5.

       -color0 color

       -color1 color

       -color2 color

       -color3 color

       -color4 color

       -color5 color

       -color6 color

       -color7 color
	       The  colors used to draw the line segments bordering the eight faces of the cube.  Some of the faces have only two of their border-
	       lines drawn in the specified color, and some have all four.

       -xw float

       -xy float

       -xz float

       -yw float

       -yz float

       -zw float
	       The amount that the cube should be rotated around the specified axis at each frame of the animation, expressed in  radians.   These
	       should be small floating-point values (less than 0.05 works best.)  Default: xy=0.01, xz=0.005, yw=0.01.

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.
