NAME
       piecewise - lots	of moving circles intersecting in interesting ways.

SYNOPSIS
       piecewise  [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual] [--window]
       [--root]	 [--window-id  number]	[--delay  number]   [--count   number]
       [--ncolors number] [--colorspeed	number]	[--minradius number] [--maxra-
       dius number] [--no-db] [--fps]

DESCRIPTION
       This  draws  a  bunch of	moving circles which switch from visibility to
       invisibility when they intersect.

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:  5000  (0.01  sec-
	       onds.).

       --count number
	       Number of circles.  Default: 32.

       --ncolors number
	       Number  of  colors,  only  one of which is used at a time.  De-
	       fault: 256.

       --colorspeed number
	       How fast	the color changes (0 - 100).  Default: 10.

       --minradius number
	       Minimum circle radius (as a proportion of screen	 height).  De-
	       fault: 0.05.

       --maxradius number
	       Maximum	circle	radius (as a proportion	of screen height). De-
	       fault: 0.2.

       --db | --no-db
	       Whether to double buffer.

       --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.
