NAME

       glblur - 3D radial blur texture fields

SYNOPSIS

       glblur  [-display  host:display.screen]  [-visual  visual]  [-window]  [-root] [-delay number] [-blursize
       number] [-no-wander] [-no-spin] [-spin [XYZ]] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       This program draws a box and a few line segments, and generates a radial  blur  outward  from  it.   This
       creates flowing field effects.

       This is done by rendering the scene into a small texture, then repeatedly rendering increasingly-enlarged
       and increasingly-transparent versions of that texture  onto  the  frame  buffer.   As  such,  it's  quite
       graphics  intensive:  don't  bother  trying  to  run  this if you don't have hardware-accelerated texture
       support.  It will hurt your machine bad.

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: 10000 (0.01 seconds.).

       -blursize number
               How  many  copies of the scene should be laid down to make the vapor trail.  Default: 15.  Larger
               numbers create smoother fields, but are slower.

       -wander | -no-wander
               Whether the object should wander around the screen.

       -spin [XYZ]
               Around which axes should the object spin?

       -no-spin
               None.

       -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.
