NAME
queens - n queens screensaver
SYNOPSIS
queens [-display host:display.screen] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-delay microseconds]
[-wireframe] [-fps]
DESCRIPTION
The queens program solves the n-queens problem (where, in this program, N is between 5 and 10 queens)
using a straightforward backtracking algorithm. The problem is: how may one place N queens on an NxN
chessboard such that no queen can attack a sister?
OPTIONS
queens 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.
-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.
BUGS
It's not unknown for this and other OpenGL hacks to fail under hardware accelaration (UtahGLX) and take
the X server with them. Texture images must be 16x16 or 32x32 or 64x64 etc.
