NAME
lockward - Rotating spinning color-cycling things
SYNOPSIS
lockward [--display displayspec] [--root] [--window-id number] [--window] [--visual arg] [--window-id arg] [--delay usec] [--pair] [--fps] [--blink | --no-blink] [--rotateidle-min msec] [--rotateidle-max msec] [--blinkidle-min msec] [--blinkidle-max msec] [--blinkdwell-min msec] [--blinkdwell-max msec]
DESCRIPTION
lockward draws a spinning, rotating set of notched wheels overlaid with some flashing effects, using OpenGL. It's a sort of cross between the wards in a combination lock and those old information displays that animated via polarized light.
OPTIONS
- --visual visual

- --window
-
Draw on a newly-created window (default).
- --root
-
Draw on the root window.
- --window-id number
-
Draw on the specified window.
- --delay microseconds
-
Per-frame delay, in microseconds. Default: 20000 (50 frames/sec).
- --blink | --no-blink
-
Enables/disables the blinking effects. Default: Enabled.
- --fps
-
Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
- --rotateidle-min milliseconds
- --rotateidle-max milliseconds
-
The minimum and maximum time each spinner will sit idle, in milliseconds. Defaults: Min 1000, max 6000.
- --blinkidle-min milliseconds
- --blinkidle-max milliseconds
-
The minimum and maximum time between blinking effects, in milliseconds. Defaults: Min 1000, max 9000.
- --blinkdwell-min milliseconds
- --blinkdwell-max milliseconds
-
The minimum and maximum dwell time for the blinking effects, in milliseconds. This affects how quickly the blinks actually happen. Defaults: Min 100, max 600.
ENVIRONMENT
- DISPLAY
-
Default host and display number.
- XENVIRONMENT
-
Name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
