DESCRIPTION

       The fuzzyflakes program draws falling pastel colored snowflake/flower shapes.  Inspired by
       the credits of the anime "Azumanga Daioh".

OPTIONS

       fuzzyflakes accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root 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 usecs
               The delay between steps of the animation, in microseconds.  Default: 250000.

       -speed int
               How fast, 1-50.  Default 10.

       -arms int
               How many arms on the flakes; default 5.

       -thickness int
               How thick to make the lines; default 10 pixels.

       -bthickness int
               How thick to make the borders; default 3 pixels.

       -radius int
               Radius of the objects; default 20 pixels.

       -layers int
               How many layers of objects; default 3.

       -density int
               Default 5.

       -no-db  Disable double-buffering.

       -color string
               The base color for the color scheme.  Typed as a hexadecimal triplet with or  with
               out the leading #. ie. fa4563 & #43cd12 are both acceptable.  If the saturation of
               you color is too low (<0.03) the random color generator will kick in.  The default
               color is #efbea5

       -random-colors
               This  enables  the  random  color  generation.   It  is  disabled  by default.  It
               overrides anything from -color

       -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.
