NAME

       hilbert - 3D Hilbert fractal.

SYNOPSIS

       hilbert  [-display host:display.screen] [-visual visual] [-window] [-root] [-delay number] [-speed ratio]
       [-depth number] [-spin] [-wander] [-2d] [-3d] [-closed] [-open] [-max-depth  number]  [-thickness  ratio]
       [-wireframe] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       This  draws  the  recursive  Hilbert  space-filling  curve, in both 2D and 3D variants.  It incrementally
       animates the growth and recursion to the maximum depth, then unwinds it back.

       The Hilbert path is a single contiguous line that can fill a volume without crossing itself.  As  a  data
       structure,  Hilbert  paths  are  useful  because ordering along the curve preserves locality: points that
       close together along the curve are also close together in space.  The converse is often, but not  always,
       true.  The coloration reflects this.

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 animation should run.  Less than 1 for slower, greater than 1 for faster.

       -max-depth number
               Max depth to descend.  Default: 5, which peaks at around half a million polygons.

       -spin   -no-spin Whether to rotate the object.  Default: true.

       -wander -no-wander Whether to wander the object around on the screen.  Default: false;

       -2d     -3d Whether to draw the 2D or 3D variant. Default: random.

       -closed -open Whether to draw the open or closed-path variant. Default: random.

       -thickness ratio
               How thick the lines should be.  Default: 0.25.

       -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.
