NAME

       glsnake - OpenGL enhanced Rubik's Snake cyclewaster.

SYNOPSIS

       glsnake   [-display   host:display.screen]  [-window]  [-root]  [-visual  visual]  [-delay
       microseconds] [-fps]  [-wireframe]  [-altcolour]  [-angvel  angular]  [-explode  distance]
       [-statictime milliseconds] [-yangvel angle] [-zangvel angle]

DESCRIPTION

       glsnake is an imitation of Rubiks´ Snake, using OpenGL.

OPTIONS

       glsnake accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -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.

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

       -wireframe
               Display the snake in wireframe mode, rather than the default solid mode.

       -altcolour
               Use the alternate colour scheme for the snake.  Shape identification using  colour
               will be disabled.

       -angvel angular
               Change the speed at which the snake morphs to a new shape.

       -explode distance
               Change the distance between the nodes of a snake.

       -statictime milliseconds
               Change the time between morphs.

       -yangvel angle
               Change the angle of rotation around the Y axis per frame.

       -zangvel angle
               Change the angle of rotation around the Z axis per frame.

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.

FILES

       /usr/share/glsnake/*.glsnake
              This XScreenSaver will attempt to read model files installed with  the  interactive
              glsnake.

BUGS

       The snake will happily intersect itself while morphing (this is not a bug).

       The rotation/camera position sucks.
