NAME
gears - draw interlocking gears, for xscreensaver. SYNOPSIS
gears [-display host:display.screen] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-delay usecs] [-speed float] [-no-spin] [-no-wander] [-count integer] [-wireframe] [-fps] DESCRIPTION
This draws a set of rotating gears. OPTIONS
gears accepts the following options: -window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default. -root Draw on the root 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. -delay usecs The delay between frames of the animation, in microseconds. Default: 30000 (0.03 seconds.) -speed float Larger numbers mean run faster. Default: 1.0. -no-spin Don't rotate the object. -no-wander Don't wander the object around the screen. -count integer How many gears to draw. Default: 0 for random. -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 the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. SEE ALSO

NAME
pinion - draws a scrolling sequence of interconnected gears SYNOPSIS
pinion [-display host:display.screen] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-delay usecs] [-scroll ratio] [-spin ratio] [-size ratio] [-max-rpm int] [-wireframe] [-fps] DESCRIPTION
The pinion program draws an interconnected set of gears moving across the screen. OPTIONS
pinion accepts the following options: -window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default. -root Draw on the root 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. -delay usecs The delay between frames of the animation, in microseconds: default 15000. -spin ratio How fast the gears should spin; default 1.0. 2.0 means twice as fast, 0.5 means half as fast. -scroll ratio How fast the gears should scroll past the screen; default 1.0. 2.0 means twice as fast, 0.5 means half as fast. -size ratio How big the gears should be, on average; default 1.0. 2.0 means twice as large, 0.5 means half as large. -max-rpm integer If any gear exceeds the maximum RPM, the current gear train is broken there, and we start a new train. Default: 900 RPM. (At 30 FPS, that's about half a rotation per frame.) -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 the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. SEE ALSO
