NAME
halftone - simple halftone pattern of moving mass points
SYNOPSIS
halftone [-display host:display.screen] [-visual visual] [-window] [-root] [-count number] [-spacing number] [-sizefactor number] [-delay number] [-minmass number] [-maxmass number] [-minspeed number] [-maxspeed number] [-fps]
DESCRIPTION
Draws the gravity force in each point on the screen seen through a halftone dot pattern. The gravity force is calculated from a set of moving mass points. View it from a distance for best effect.
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. |
| -count number | |
| How many mass points to move around. Default: 10 | |
| -spacing number | |
| Distance between each halftone dot. Default: 14 | |
| -sizefactor number | |
| How big each halftone dot should be drawn compared to the spacing value. Default: 1.5 | |
| -minmass number | |
| The minimum mass of each mass point. Default: 0.001 | |
| -maxmass number | |
| The maximum mass of each mass point. Default: 0.02 | |
| -minspeed number | |
| The minimum speed of each mass point. Default: 0.001 | |
| -maxspeed number | |
| The maximum speed of each mass point. Default: 0.02 -delay number Per-frame delay, in microseconds. Default: 10000 | |
| -fps | Display the current frame rate and CPU load. |
ENVIRONMENT
| DISPLAY | to get the default host and display number. |
