glcells(6) XScreenSaver manual glcells(6) NAME glcells - growing cells graphics hack SYNOPSIS glcells [--display host:display.screen] [--window] [--root] [--window-id number][--install] [--visual visual] [--delay num] [--pause num] [--max- cells num] [--radius num] [--seeds num] [--quality num] [--minfood num] [--maxfood num] [--divideage num] [--mindist num] [--keepold] [--wireframe] [--fps] DESCRIPTION The glcells program draws cells that divide exponentially, eat and eventu- ally die. OPTIONS glcells 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. --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. --pause num Specifies the pause at the end of the animation (all cells dead or maximum amount of cells reached). Unit is in frames, default 20. --maxcells num Specifies the maximum number of cells on screen (dead cells also count, even if invisible). Default is 800. --radius num Specifies the radius of the cells. Default is 40. --seeds num Specifies the number of cells when animation starts. Default is 1. --quality num Specifies subdivision quality of the spheres used to draw the cells [0...5]. Default is 3. --minfood num Food is ditributed randomly on the screen (Yes, the cells need to eat). This parameter specifies the minimum amount of food per pixel. Default is 5. --maxfood num Food is ditributed randomly on the screen (Yes, the cells need to eat). This parameter specifies the maximum amount of food per pixel. Default is 20. --divideage num Specifies the minimum age in frames a cell needs to have before be- ing able to divide. Default is 20 --mindist num Specifies the minimum distance between cells. Default 1.4 --delay num How long to pause between frames. Default is 20000, or 0.02 sec- ond. --fps Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count. --wireframe Draw wireframe only. --keepold Dead cells stay on screen. 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. SEE ALSO X(1), xscreensaver(1) xscreensaver-settings(1), http://www.mtoussaint.de/bits.html COPYRIGHT Copyright (C) 2007 by Matthias Toussaint.
