DESCRIPTION
     This program animates a puzzle called Rubik's Mirror Blocks.  The moves are
     chosen randomly.

OPTIONS
     rubikblocks 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.

     --delay microseconds
	     How  long	to pause between frames.  Default is 20000, or 0.02 sec-
	     ond.

     --texture
	     Use texture maps.	This is the default.

     --no-texture
	     Use solid colors.	Looks a bit weird.

     --mono  Disable both texture maps and colors.  Ditto.

     --wireframe
	     Only draw outlines.  Outlines of each piece, not only the whole ob-
	     ject, are drawn.

     --spin  Spin the whole object around X, Y and Z axes.  This is the default.

     --no-spin
	     Do not spin, stay in the same tilt all the time.

     --wander
	     Move the object around the screen.  This is the default.

     --no-wander
	     Keep the object centered on the screen.

     --randomize
	     Shuffle the puzzle randomly at startup.  This is the default.

     --no-randomize
	     Do not shuffle at startup, begin at the shape of cube.

     --spinspeed number
	     The relative speed of spinning.  Default is 1.0.

     --rotspeed number
	     The relative speed of the moves.  Default is 3.0.	 Setting  to  <=
	     0.0 makes the object stay at one configuration.

     --wanderspeed number
	     The  relative  speed  of  wandering  around the screen.  Default is
	     0.02.

     --wait number
	     How long to stay at final position after each move.  The meaning of
	     the argument is again relative.  Default is 40.0.

     --cubesize number
	     Size of the object.  Value of 3.0 fills roughly all the screen.

     --fps   Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

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.
