NAME

       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.
