NAME
     flipflop - draws a grid of 3D squares that change positions

SYNOPSIS
     flipflop	[--display  host:display.screen]  [--visual  visual]  [--window]
     [--root] [--window-id number] [--count number | --free number] [--size num-
     ber] [--size-x number] [--size-y number] [--spin number] [--mode  sticks  |
     tiles] [--delay number] [--wireframe] [--fps] [--texture]

DESCRIPTION
     Flipflop  draws  a grid of 3D colored tiles that change positions with each
     other.

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.

     --window-id number
	     Draw on the specified window.

     --count number
	     Number of tiles on the board. A value of "0" means  "default".  The
	     default  number  of  tiles depends on the size of the board and the
	     mode: 95% of total tiles for "tiles" mode and 80% of  total  sticks
	     for "sticks" mode (e.g. 76 tiles or 64 sticks for a 9x9 board).

     --free number
	     Number of tiles missing from the board. See -count.

     --size number
	     Number  of  tiles	on each side of the board. Takes precedence over
	     -size-x and -size-y. Default: 9.

     --size-x number
	     Width (in tiles) of the board. Default: 9.

     --size-y number
	     Length (in tiles) of the board. Default: 9.

     --spin number
	     Angular velocity for the rotation of the board.

     --mode sticks
	     Draw hopping sticks instead of flipping tiles.

     --mode tiles
	     Draw flipping tiles. This is the default.

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

     --fps | --no-fps
	     Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

     --wireframe
	     Only draw outlines.

     --texture | --no-texture
	     Whether to texture the tiles with a screen grab or an image.

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.
