DESCRIPTION

       The fuzzyflakes program draws falling pastel colored snowflake/flower shapes.  Inspired by the credits of
       the anime "Azumanga Daioh".

OPTIONS

       fuzzyflakes accepts the following options:

       --window
               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.

       --root  Draw on the root window.

       --window-id number
               Draw on the specified window.

       --mono  If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       --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.

       --delay usecs
               The delay between steps of the animation, in microseconds.  Default: 250000.

       --speed int
               How fast, 1-50.  Default 10.

       --arms int
               How many arms on the flakes; default 5.

       --thickness int
               How thick to make the lines; default 10 pixels.

       --bthickness int
               How thick to make the borders; default 3 pixels.

       --radius int
               Radius of the objects; default 20 pixels.

       --layers int
               How many layers of objects; default 3.

       --density int
               Default 5.

       --no-db Disable double-buffering.

       --color string
               The base color for the color scheme.  Typed as a hexadecimal triplet with or with out the leading
               #.  ie.  fa4563 & #43cd12 are both acceptable.  If the saturation of you color is too low (<0.03)
               the random color generator will kick in.  The default color is #efbea5

       --random-colors
               This enables the random color generation.  It is disabled by default.  It overrides anything from
               -color

       --fps   Display the current frame rate and CPU load.

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.

       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
               The window ID to use with --root.
