NAME

       tint - clone of the original tint

SYNOPSIS

       tint [-h] [-l level] [-n] [-d] [-b char]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the tint clone. As with all games (and especially with tint), you have to play it, not read about it.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.	For a complete description, see the NOTES file in /usr/share/doc/tint.

       -h     Show summary of options.

       -l <level>
	      Specify the starting level (1-9). The higher the level you're starting from, the faster you'll earn points.

       -n     Draw next shape. When the next shape is drawn, you might find the game to be easier, but it will be slower to earn points.

       -d     Draw dotted lines.

       -b <char>
	      Use the specified character (instead of spaces) to draw blocks.

NAME

       floatbg - slowly modify the color of the X root window

SYNTAX

       floatbg [-display display] [-help] [-gnome] [-xfce] [-value float] [-satmid float] [-satvar float] [-fase float] [-time float]

DESCRIPTION

       Floatbg	is  an	X11  program  that modifies the color of the root window in such a manner that you won't see the color change, but after a
       while you'll notice that it did change, however.

       Floatbg starts with a random color and changes it deterministically by moving through an hsv-model of colors.  In the hsv-model, colors are
       described by three parameters: Hue stands for the tint of a color (0 degrees is red, 60 = yellow, 120 = green, 180 = aquamarine, etc), sat-
       urations stands for the brightness of the color (0 = white, 1 = bright), and value stands for the intensity of the color (0 =  black,  1  =
       normal).

       Every  10  seconds the hue (tint) is increased by one degree and the saturation (brightness) is changed by a sinus over the hue.  (The fre-
       quency of this change can be adjusted with the -time parameter.)  The shape of this sinus can be adapted with the options -satmid,  -satvar
       and  -fase.  The value (blackness) is fixed and can be set with the option -value.  The default values are: floatbg -value .87 -satmid .375
       -satvar .125 -fase .25, and are such that all pastel tints are visited.

       Extremely simplistic Gnome and Xfce support can be enabled with the -gnome and -xfce flags.

BUGS

       Floatbg doesn't use any window, button or menu, and it can only be stopped by killing it.
