NAME
     xflame - draws animated flames

SYNOPSIS
     xflame  [--display  host:display.screen]  [--window]  [--root] [--window-id
     number][--install] [--visual visual] [--foreground color]	[--hspread  int]
     [--vspread int] [--residual int] [--variance int] [--vartrend int] [--bloom
      --no-bloom] [--bitmap xbm-file] [--baseline int] [--fps]

DESCRIPTION
     The  xflame  program draws animated flames across the bottom of the screen.
     The flames occasionally flare up.	If a bitmap  is  specified,  that  image
     will float above the flames, burning.

OPTIONS
     xflame 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.

     --foreground color or --fg color
	     The color of the flames; default red.  (The background color is al-
	     ways black.)

     --bitmap filename
	     Specifies the bitmap file to use (a monochrome XBM file.)	The name
	     "none"  means not to use a bitmap at all.	If unspecified, a built-
	     in image will be used.

     The other options are arcane.  If someone would care to document them, that
     would be great.

     --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.
