DESCRIPTION

       The moire program draws cool circular interference patterns.

OPTIONS

       moire accepts the following options:

       --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.

       --mono  If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       --install
               Install a private colormap for the window.

       --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.

       --delay seconds
               How long to wait before starting over.  Default 5 seconds.

       --random boolean
               Whether to  ignore  the  foreground/background  colors,  and  pick  them  randomly
               instead.

       --offset integer
               The maximum random radius increment to use.

       --ncolors integer
               How  many  colors  should  be  allocated  in  the color ramp (note that this value
               interacts with offset.)

       --fps   Display the current frame rate and CPU load.

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.
