NAME

       glsnake - OpenGL enhanced Rubik's Snake cyclewaster.

SYNOPSIS

       glsnake	[-display  host:display.screen] [-window] [-root] [-visual visual] [-delay microseconds] [-fps] [-wireframe] [-altcolour] [-angvel
       angular] [-explode distance] [-statictime milliseconds] [-yangvel angle] [-zangvel angle]

DESCRIPTION

       glsnake is an imitation of Rubiks' Snake, using OpenGL.

OPTIONS

       glsnake 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.

       -fps    Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

       -wireframe
	       Display the snake in wireframe mode, rather than the default solid mode.

       -altcolour
	       Use the alternate colour scheme for the snake.  Shape identification using colour will be disabled.

       -angvel angular
	       Change the speed at which the snake morphs to a new shape.

       -explode distance
	       Change the distance between the nodes of a snake.

       -statictime milliseconds
	       Change the time between morphs.

       -yangvel angle
	       Change the angle of rotation around the Y axis per frame.

       -zangvel angle
	       Change the angle of rotation around the Z axis per frame.

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.

FILES

       /usr/share/glsnake/*.glsnake
	      This XScreenSaver will attempt to read model files installed with the interactive glsnake.

BUGS

       The snake will happily intersect itself while morphing (this is not a bug).

       The rotation/camera position sucks.

NAME

       sierpinski3d - 3D Sierpinski triangle fractal.

SYNOPSIS

       sierpinski3d [-display host:display.screen] [-visual visual] [-window] [-root] [-delay number] [-speed number] [-depth number] [-wireframe]
       [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       This draws the three-dimensional variant of the recursive Sierpinski triangle fractal, using GL.

OPTIONS

       -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.

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -delay number
	       Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 20000 (0.02 seconds.).

       -speed number
	       Number of frames before changing shape.	Default: 150.

       -depth number
	       Max depth to descend.  Default: 5.  You probably don't have enough memory for 6.

       -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.
