       --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

	       How many	pixels to draw for each	fractal.  Default 10000.

       --delay microseconds
	       How  long we should wait	between	drawing	each fractal.  Default
	       50000, or about 1/20th second.

       --delay2	microseconds
	       How long	we should wait before clearing the  screen  when  each
	       run ends.  Default 2000000, or two seconds.

       --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
