NAME
     binaryhorizon - A system of path tracing particles evolves continuously.

SYNOPSIS
     binaryhorizon  [--fps]  [--install] [--noinstall] [--mono] [--root] [--win-
     dow-id  number]  [--visual  visual]  [--window]   [--window-id   window-id]
     [--color]	[--no-color]  [--growth-delay delayms] [--particle-number parti-
     cles] [--duration secs] [--bicolor] [--monocolor]

DESCRIPTION
     A system of path tracing particles evolves  continuously  from  an  initial
     horizon, alternating between colors.

OPTIONS
     binaryhorizon accepts the following options:

     --fps   Display the current frame rate and CPU load.

     --install
	     Install a private colormap for the window.

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

     --noinstall
	     Don't install a private colormap for the window.

     --root  Draw on the root window.

     --window-id number
	     Draw on the specified 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.

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

     --window-id window-id
	     Specify which window id to use.

     --color (Default)
	     Particles have random generated colors that gradually  change  over
	     time.

     --no-color
	     Use the original black and white visualization.

     --bicolor (Default)
	     Particles have 2 random colors, starting as white and black.

     --monocolor
	     Particles have 2 colors, one starting as white and gradually chang-
	     ing, and one staying black.

     --fade (Default)
	     Particles gradually fade between colors over time.

     --no-fade
	     Every particle is a random color.

     --growth-delay delayms (Default: 10000)
	     Delay in ms between growth cycles. More delay, slower (but less CPU
	     intensive).

     --particles-number particles (Default: 5000)
	     The  number of particles in the system. With more particles the fps
	     can also be affected.

     --duration secs (Default: 30)
	     How long between full resets.

ENVIRONMENT
     DISPLAY
	     to get the default host and display number.

     XENVIRONMENT
	     to get the name of a resource file that overrides	the  global  re-
	     sources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

     XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
	     The window ID to use with --root.
