NAME
Juggler3D - a 3D juggling simulation.
SYNOPSIS
juggler3d [-display
host:display.screen] [-visual visual] [-window]
[-root] [-delay number] [-speed number] [-trans
number] [-spin number] [-maxobjs number]
[-minobjs number] [-maxhinc number] [-minhinc
number] [-wireframe] [-fps]
DESCRIPTION
Displays a 3D simulation of a juggler
performing with balls, clubs and rings. Juggling patterns are
either created randomly using siteswaps or from a small library of
predefined patterns. juggler3d is partially based on the
Win32 screensaver Juggle Saver (www.jugglesaver.co.uk) by the
same author.
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.
- -delay number
- Per-frame delay, in microseconds. Default: 20000 (0.02
seconds.).
- -speed number
- Speed of objects being juggled in beats per seconds. Default:
2.2.
- -trans number
- Speed of horizontal juggler movement (translational) across the
screen in degrees/seconds. Default: 0.1
- -spin number
- Speed of juggler rotation in degrees/seconds. Default: 20
- -maxobj number
- Maximum number of objects used in a random juggling pattern. 3
- 36.
- -minobj number
- Minimum number of objects used in a random juggling pattern. 3
- maxobj.
- -minhinc number | -maxhinc number
- Used to determine maximum throw weight in random siteswap.
Options refer to minimum height increment and maximum height
increment. Maximum weight chosen will lie between maxobj +
minhinc and maxobj + maxhinc. Defaults:
minhinc=2 and maxhinc=6.
- -wireframe | -no-wireframe
- Render in wireframe instead of solid.
- -fps | -no-fps
- Whether to show a frames-per-second display at the bottom of
the screen.
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.
