SYNOPSIS
distort [-root] [-window] [-mono] [-install] [-noinstall] [-visual vis‐
ual] [-window-id window-id] [-delay usecs] [-radius pixels] [-speed
int] [-number int] [-swamp] [-bounce] [-reflect] [-vortex] [-magnify]
[-blackhole] [-slow] [-shm] [-no-shm]
DESCRIPTION
The distort program lets circular zones of distortion wander randomly
around its window, apparently distorting what is under them due to the
window's pseudo-transparency. The mode of distortion and the overall
behaviour of the zones can be influenced in various ways.
OPTIONS
distort accepts the following options:
-root Draw on the root window.
-window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default.
-mono If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.
-install
Install a private colormap for the window.
-noinstall
Don't 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.
-window-id window-id
Specify which window id to use.
-delay usecs
Specify the delay between subsequent animation frames in
microseconds.
-radius pixels
Specify the radius of the distortion zone in pixels.
-speed int
Specify the speed at which the distortion zone moves, where 0
is slow, higher numbers are faster (10 is pretty fast.)
-number int
Specify the number of distortion zones.
-swamp Instead of letting zones wander around, let small zones pop up
like bubbles in a swamp and leave permanent distortion.
-bounce Let zones wander around and bounce off the window border. This
is the default.
-reflect
Mode of distortion that resembles reflection by a cylindrical
mirror.
-vortex Whirlpool-shaped distortion. Way cool.
-magnify
This mode of distortion looks like a magnifying glass.
-blackhole
Suck your pixels beyond the event horizon. Favourite mode of Dr
Stephen Hawking.
-slow Make the zone wander slower.
-shm Use shared memory extension.
-no-shm Don't use shared memory extension.
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.
