DESCRIPTION
       The  hop	program	generates real plane fractals as described in the Sep-

OPTIONS
       hopalong	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.

       --ncolors integer
	       How many	colors should be used  (if  possible).	 Default  200.
	       The  colors  used  cycle	through	the hue, making	N stops	around
	       the color wheel.

       --cycles	integer
	       How long	to run each batch.  Default 2500 pixels.

       --count integer
	       How many	pixels should be drawn before a	color change.  Default
	       1000.

       --jong integer

       --no-jong integer
	       Whether to use the Jong format (default is to choose randomly.)

       --sine integer

       --no-sine integer
	       Whether to use the Sine format (default is to choose randomly.)

       --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.
