NAME 

xflame - draws animated flames

SYNOPSIS 

xflame [-display host:display.screen] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual] [-foreground color] [-hspread int] [-vspread int] [-residual int] [-variance int] [-vartrend int] [-bloom -no-bloom] [-bitmap xbm-file] [-baseline int]

DESCRIPTION 

The xflame program draws animated flames across the bottom of the screen. The flames occasionally flare up. If a bitmap is specified, that image will float above the flames, burning.

OPTIONS 

xflame accepts the following options:
-window
Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
-root
Draw on the root window.
-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.
-foreground color or -fg color
The color of the flames; default red. (The background color is always black.)
-bitmap filename
Specifies the bitmap file to use (a monochrome XBM file.) The name "none" means not to use a bitmap at all. If unspecified, a built-in image will be used.

The other options are arcane. If someone would care to document them, that would be great.

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.
