NAME
lockward - Rotating spinning color-cycling things
SYNOPSIS
lockward [-display displayspec] [-root] [-window] [-visual arg] [-window-id arg] [-delay usec] [-pair] [-fps] [-blink | -no-blink] [-rotateidle-min msec] [-rotateidle-max msec] [-blinkidle-min msec] [-blinkidle-max msec] [-blinkdwell-min msec] [-blinkdwell-max msec]
DESCRIPTION
lockward draws a spinning, rotating set of notched wheels overlaid with some flashing effects, using OpenGL. It’s a sort of cross between the wards in a combination lock and those old information displays that animated via polarized light.
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 (default). |
| -root | Draw on the root window. |
| -delay microseconds | |
| Per-frame delay, in microseconds. Default: 20000 (50 frames/sec). | |
| -blink | -no-blink | |
| Enables/disables the blinking effects. Default: Enabled. | |
| -fps | Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count. |
|
-rotateidle-min milliseconds
-rotateidle-max milliseconds | |
| The minimum and maximum time each spinner will sit idle, in milliseconds. Defaults: Min 1000, max 6000. | |
|
-blinkidle-min milliseconds
-blinkidle-max milliseconds | |
| The minimum and maximum time between blinking effects, in milliseconds. Defaults: Min 1000, max 9000. | |
|
-blinkdwell-min milliseconds
-blinkdwell-max milliseconds | |
| The minimum and maximum dwell time for the blinking effects, in milliseconds. This affects how quickly the blinks actually happen. Defaults: Min 100, max 600. | |
ENVIRONMENT
| DISPLAY | Default host and display number. |
| XENVIRONMENT | |
| Name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. | |
