DESCRIPTION
       The rorschach program draws random patterns reminiscent of the  psycho-
       logical test of same name.

OPTIONS
       rorschach 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.

       --iterations integer
	       How many	dots should be drawn each time.	 Default 4000.

       --offset	integer
	       How far apart the dots should be.  Default 4 pixels.

       --xsymmetry
	       Whether the images should be horizontally symmetrical.  Default
	       true.

       --ysymmetry
	       Whether	the  images should be vertically symmetrical.  Default
	       false.

       --erase-speed usecs
	       This controls the speed at which	the  screen  will  be  erased.
	       (Delay between erasing of individual lines.)

       --delay seconds
	       This  sets the number of	seconds	that the figure	will be	on the
	       screen.

       --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.

BUGS
       May call	your sanity into question.
