NAME

       spotlight - move spotlight around desktop

SYNOPSIS

       spotlight [-display host:display.screen] [-foreground color] [-background color] [-window]
       [-root] [-mono] [-install] [-visual  visual]  [-delay  usecs]  [-duration  secs]  [-radius

DESCRIPTION

       The  spotlight  program  takes  an  image and exposes small sections of it as if through a
       wandering spotlight beam.

       The image that it manipulates will be grabbed from the portion of  the  screen  underlying
       the  window, or from the system's video input, or from a random file on disk, as indicated
       by  the  grabDesktopImages,  grabVideoFrames,  and  chooseRandomImages  options   in   the
       ~/.xscreensaver file; see xscreensaver-demo(1) for more details.

       spotlight accepts the following options:

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