       flyingtoasters - 3d space-age jet-powered flying toasters (and toast)

SYNOPSIS

       flyingtoasters  [-display  host:display.screen] [-visual visual] [-window] [-root] [-delay
       number] [-speed number] [-ntoasters number] [-nslices number]  [-no-texture]  [-wireframe]
       [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       Draws  a squadron of shiny 3D space-age jet-powered flying toasters, and associated toast,
       flying across your screen.

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.

       -delay number
               Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 30000 (0.03 seconds.).

       -speed number
               How fast the toasters fly.  Larger for faster.  Default: 1.0.

       -ntoasters number
               How many toasters to draw.  Default 20.

       -nslices number
               How many slices of toast to draw.  Default 25.

       -no-texture
               Turn off texture mapping (for slow machines.)

       -wireframe
               Render in wireframe instead of solid.

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

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.

       The  original After Dark flying toasters, with the fluffy white wings, were a trademark of
       Berkeley Systems.  Berkeley Systems ceased to exist some time in 1998, having been gobbled
       up  by  Sierra  Online,  who were subsequently gobbled up by Flipside and/or Vivendi (it's
       hard to tell exactly what happened when.)

       I doubt anyone even cares any more, but if they do, hopefully this homage, with the space-
       age 3D jet-plane toasters, will be considered different enough that whoever still owns the
       trademark to the fluffy-winged 2D bitmapped toasters won't get all huffy at us.
