NAME

SYNOPSIS
     flyingtoasters [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual] [--window]
     [--root]  [--window-id number] [--delay number] [--speed number] [--ntoast-
     ers number]  [--nslices  number]  [--no-texture]  [--no-fog]  [--wireframe]
     [--fps]

DESCRIPTION
     Draws a squadron of shiny 3D space-age jet-powered flying toasters, and as-
     sociated toast, flying across your screen.

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.

     --delay number
	     Per-frame delay, in microseconds.	Default: 30000 (0.03 seconds.).

     --speed number
	     How fast the toasters fly.  Larger for faster.  Default: 1.0.

     --ntoasters number
	     How many toasters to draw.  Default 20.

     --nslices number
	     How many slices of toast to draw.	Default 25.

     --no-texture
	     Turn off texture mapping (for slow machines.)

     --no-fog
	     Turn off fog (do not fade out distant toasters.)

     --wireframe
	     Render in wireframe instead of solid.

     --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.

     The  original After Dark flying toasters, with the fluffy white wings, were
     a trademark of Berkeley Systems.  Berkeley Systems  ceased  to  exist  some
     time  in  1998,  having  been  gobbled up by Sierra Online, who were subse-
     quently gobbled up by Flipside and/or Vivendi (it's hard  to  tell  exactly
     what happened when.)

     I	doubt anyone even cares any more, but if they do, hopefully this homage,
     with the space-age 3D jet-plane  toasters,  will  be  considered  different
     enough  that  whoever  still  owns  the  trademark  to the fluffy-winged 2D
     bitmapped toasters won't get all huffy at us.
