NAME
       cwaves -	languid	sinusoidal colors

SYNOPSIS
       cwaves  [--display  host:display.screen]	 [--foreground color] [--back-
       ground color] [--window]	[--root] [--window-id number] [--mono]	[--in-
       stall]  [--visual  visual] [--delay usecs] [--waves int]	[--colors int]
       [--fps]

DESCRIPTION
       The cwaves program draws	a languidly-scrolling vertical field of	 sinu-
       soidal colors.

OPTIONS
       cwaves 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.

       --mono  If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       --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 microseconds
	       How  much  of a delay should be introduced between steps	of the
	       animation.  Default 20000, or about 1/50th second.

       --waves int
	       How many	cosines	to add together.  The  more  waves,  the  more
	       complex the apparent motion.

       --colors	int
	       How  many  colors  to  use.  Default 800.  The more colors, the
	       smoother	the blending will be.

       --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.
