DESCRIPTION

       Loads several random images, and displays them flying in a circular formation.  The circle
       changes speed and direction randomly, tilts on its axis, and the images move in and out.

       This program requires a good video card capable of supporting large textures.

       To  specify  the  directory  that images are loaded from, run xscreensaver-settings(1) and
       click on the "Advanced" tab.

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.

       --window-id number
               Draw on the specified window.

       --count int
               How many images to display.  Default 7.

       --zoom | --no-zoom
               Whether  the  images  should  move  in  and  out (toward and away from the axis of
               rotation).  Default true.

       --tilt XY | --no-tilt
               Whether the axis of rotation should tilt, and how.  -tilt X  means  that  it  will
               tilt toward and away from the viewer.  -tilt Y means that it will tilt to the left
               and right of the screen.  -tilt XY (the default) means it will do both.

       --titles | --no-titles
               Whether to display the file names of the images beneath them.  Default: yes.

       --font font-name
               The font to use for titles.  Note that the size of the font affects the clarity of
               the characters, not their size (it is auto-scaled.)

       --duration seconds
               Every  duration  seconds,  one  of  the  images  will  be replaced with a new one.
               Default 20 seconds.

       --speed ratio
               Speed up or slow down the animation.  0.5 means half as fast as the  default;  2.0
               means twice as fast.

       --delay number
               Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 20000 (0.02 seconds.).

       --fps   Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

       --debug Prints debugging info to stderr.

       --wireframe
               Another debug mode.

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.

       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
               The window ID to use with --root.
