       spheremonics - 3d spherical harmonic shapes.

SYNOPSIS

       spheremonics  [-display  host:display.screen]  [-visual  visual] [-window] [-root] [-delay
       number]  [-duration  number]  [-resolution  number]  [-wander]  [-no-spin]  [-spin  [XYZ]]
       [-wireframe] [-no-smooth] [-no-grid] [-bbox] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       These  closed  objects  are  commonly  called  spherical harmonics, although they are only
       remotely related to the mathematical definition found in  the  solution  to  certain  wave
       functions, most notable the eigenfunctions of angular momentum operators.

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.).

       -duration number
               Duration.  5 - 1000.  Default: 100.

       -resolution number
               Resolution.  5 - 100.  Default: 64.

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

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

       -no-spin
               Don't spin.

       -wireframe
               Render in wireframe instead of solid.

       -smooth | -no-smooth
               Smoothed Lines.  Boolean.

       -grid | -no-grid
               Draw Grid.  Boolean.

       -bbox | -no-bbox
               Draw Bounding Box.  Boolean.

       -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.
