DESCRIPTION

       The galaxy program draws spinning galaxies.

OPTIONS

       galaxy 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.

       -ncolors integer
               How many colors should be used (if possible).  Default 64.  The colors  used  cycle  through  the
               hue, making N stops around the color wheel.

       -cycles integer

       -count integer

       -size integer

       -tracks

       -no-tracks

       -spin

       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.

ENVIRONMENT

       XENVIRONMENT
