julia(6) XScreenSaver manual julia(6) NAME julia - draws spinning, animating julia-set fractals SYNOPSIS julia [--display host:display.screen] [--foreground color] [--back- ground color] [--window] [--root] [--window-id number][--mono] [--in- stall] [--visual visual] [--ncolors integer] [--delay microseconds] [--cycles integer] [--count integer] [--fps] DESCRIPTION The julia program draws spinning, animating julia-set fractals. It uses ifs {w0 = sqrt(x-c), w1 = -sqrt(x-c)} with random iteration to plot the julia set, and sinusoidially varied parameters for the set, and plots parameters with a circle. One thing to note is that count is the depth of the search tree, so the number of points computed is (2^count)-1. I use 8 or 9 on a dx266 and it looks okay. The sinusoidal variation of the parameter might not be as interesting as it could, but it still gives an idea of the effect of the parameter. Dragging the mouse in the window uses the mouse's position as the con- trol point for the generation of ths set. OPTIONS julia 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. --mono If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display. --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. --ncolors integer How many colors should be used (if possible). Default 200. The colors used cycle through the hue, making N stops around the color wheel. --cycles integer --count integer --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 resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW The window ID to use with --root. SEE ALSO X(1), xscreensaver(1), xlock(1) COPYRIGHT Copyright (C) 1995 by Sean McCullough.
