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

               Draw on the specified 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
