       xflame - draws animated flames

SYNOPSIS

       xflame  [--display  host:display.screen]  [--window]  [--root]  [--window-id number][--install] [--visual
       visual]  [--foreground  color]  [--hspread  int]  [--vspread  int]  [--residual  int]  [--variance   int]
       [--vartrend int] [--bloom  --no-bloom] [--bitmap xbm-file] [--baseline int] [--fps]

DESCRIPTION

       The  xflame program draws animated flames across the bottom of the screen.  The flames occasionally flare
       up.  If a bitmap is specified, that image will float above the flames, burning.

OPTIONS

       xflame 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.

       --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.

       --foreground color or --fg color
               The color of the flames; default red.  (The background color is always black.)

       --bitmap filename
               Specifies  the  bitmap  file  to use (a monochrome XBM file.)  The name "none" means not to use a
               bitmap at all.  If unspecified, a built-in image will be used.

       The other options are arcane.  If someone would care to document them, that would be great.

       --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.
