DESCRIPTION

       The sballs program draws an animation of balls spinning like crazy in GL.

OPTIONS

       sballs 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.

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

       -object object_number
               Specify how the spheres are grouped (forming an object).  Objects are:

       1         tetrahedron

       2         cube. This is the default.

       3         octahedron

       4         dodecahedron

       5         icosahedron

       6         plane

       7         pyramid

       8         star

       -size viewport_size
               Viewport  of  GL  scene  is  specified  size  if  greater  than  32  and less than
               screensize. Default value is 0, meaning full screensize.

       -texture
               Show a textured background and spheres. This is the default.

       -no-texture
               Disables texturing the animation.

       -trackmouse
               Let the mouse be a joystick to change the view of  the  animation.   This  implies
               -no-wander.

       -no-trackmouse
               Disables mouse tracking. This is the default.

       -wire   Draw a wireframe rendition of the spheres.

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.
