memscroller(6) XScreenSaver manual memscroller(6) NAME memscroller - scrolls a dump of its own RAM across the screen SYNOPSIS memscroller [--display host:display.screen] [--window] [--root] [--win- dow-id number][--mono] [--install] [--visual visual] [--font font] [--delay int] [--mono | -color] [--ram | -random | --filename file] [--fps] DESCRIPTION The memscroller program scrolls a dump of its own process memory across the screen in three windows at three different rates. OPTIONS memscroller 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. --color Render each three bytes of memory as R, G, B. This is the default. --mono Render each byte of memory in shades of green. --ram Read from the process's address space. This is the default. --random Instead of reading from memory, generate random numbers. --filename file Instead of reading from memory, read from the given file until EOF, then re-open it. If you have permission, /dev/mem is an interest- ing choice here. (Note that /dev/null won't ever display anything, because it returns EOF without ever returning any data.) --delay microseconds How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the ani- mation. Default 10000. --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 re- sources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW The window ID to use with --root.
