SYNOPSIS

       lockward  [-display  displayspec] [-root] [-window] [-visual arg] [-window-id arg] [-delay
       usec] [-pair] [-fps] [-blink | -no-blink] [-rotateidle-min  msec]  [-rotateidle-max  msec]
       [-blinkidle-min msec] [-blinkidle-max msec] [-blinkdwell-min msec] [-blinkdwell-max msec]

DESCRIPTION

       lockward  draws  a  spinning,  rotating  set of notched wheels overlaid with some flashing
       effects, using OpenGL.  It's a sort of cross between the wards in a combination  lock  and
       those old information displays that animated via polarized light.

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 (default).

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -delay microseconds
               Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 20000 (50 frames/sec).

       -blink | -no-blink
               Enables/disables the blinking effects.  Default: Enabled.

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

       -rotateidle-min milliseconds

       -rotateidle-max milliseconds
               The minimum and  maximum  time  each  spinner  will  sit  idle,  in  milliseconds.
               Defaults: Min 1000, max 6000.

       -blinkidle-min milliseconds

       -blinkidle-max milliseconds
               The minimum and maximum time between blinking effects, in milliseconds.  Defaults:
               Min 1000, max 9000.

       -blinkdwell-min milliseconds

       -blinkdwell-max milliseconds
               The minimum and maximum dwell time for  the  blinking  effects,  in  milliseconds.
               This affects how quickly the blinks actually happen.  Defaults: Min 100, max 600.

ENVIRONMENT

       DISPLAY Default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
               Name  of  a  resource  file  that  overrides  the  global  resources stored in the
