DESCRIPTION

       Wiggling tentacles.

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.).

       -arms number
               Arms.  2 - 500.  Default: 128.

       -finpoints number
               Tentacles.  3 - 200.  Default: 64.

       -withdraw number
               Frequency  that  the  arms  withdraw.  Arms  withdraw on randomly generated values
               between 1 and 11; this value determines the maximum value of that  range.  So  100
               spends  a  lot  of  time  withdrawn,  while 1000,000 tends not to withdraw at all.
               Default: 1200.

       -turnspeed number
               How fast it turns. At zero, not at all, all they way up  to  thousands  which  are
               very fast indeed.  Default: 50.

       -width number
               Thickness.  1 - 10.  Default: 2.

       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
