       superquadrics - morphing 3d shapes.


SYNOPSIS
       superquadrics   [-display   host:display.screen]  [-visual  visual]  [-window]  [-root]  [-delay  number]
       [-spinspeed number] [-count number] [-cycles number] [-wireframe] [-fps]


DESCRIPTION
       Ed Mackey reports that he wrote the first version of this program in BASIC on a Commodore 64 in 1987,  as
       a 320x200 black and white wireframe. Now it is GL and has specular reflections.


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: 40000 (0.04 seconds.).

       -spinspeed number
               0.1 - 15.0.  Default: 5.0.

       -count number
               0 - 100.  Default: 25.

       -cycles number
               0 - 100.  Default: 40.

       -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.
