DESCRIPTION
The halo program draws cool patterns based on circles.
OPTIONS
halo
accepts the following options:
-window
Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
-root
-mono
If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.
-install
Install a private colormap for the window.
-visual \fIvisual\fP
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.
-count \fIinteger\fP
How many circles to draw. Default 0, meaning random.
-mode "seuss | ramp | random"
In seuss mode, alternating striped curves will be drawn.
In ramp mode, a color ramp will be drawn.
random means pick the mode randomly.
-delay \fImicroseconds\fP
How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation.
Default 100000, or about 0.1 second.
-colors \fIinteger\fP
How many colors to use. Default 100.
-animate
If specified, then the centerpoints of the circles will bounce around.
Otherwise, the circles will be drawn once, erased, and a new set of
circles will be drawn.
-cycle
-no-cycle
Whether to do colormap cycling. Default is to cycle.
-cycle-delay
Number of microseconds between shifts of the colormap; default 100000,
or 1/10th second.
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.
