NAME
       splitflap - a simulation of a split-flap electromechanical display.

SYNOPSIS
       splitflap  [-display  host:display.screen]  [-visual  visual] [-window]
       [-root] [-delay microseconds] [-speed float] [-width columns]  [-height
       rows]  [-mode  text  |  clock12	|  clock24]  [-no-wander] [-spin axes]
       [-no-spin] [-front] [-no-front] [-wireframe] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION
       Simulates a split-flap display, an old style of electromechanical  sign
       as  seen	 in  airports  and  train stations, and commonly used in alarm
       clocks in the 1960s and 1970s.

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  sec‐
	       onds).

       -speed number
	       Animation  speed.   2.0	means twice as fast, 0.5 means half as
	       fast.

       -width number
	       Columns of the display.	Default: 22.

       -height number
	       Rows of the display. Default: 8.

       -mode clock12
	       Display a 12-hour clock.

       -mode clock24
	       Display a 24-hour clock.

       -front | -no-front
	       When spinning, never spin all the way around  or	 upside	 down:
	       always face mostly forward so that the text is easily readable.
	       This is the default.

       -no-front
	       Allow spins to go all the way around or upside down.

       -wander | -no-wander
	       Whether the object should wander around the screen.

       -spin   Which axes around which the text should spin.  The  default  is
	       "XYZ",  meaning	rotate	it  freely  in space.  "-spin Z" would
	       rotate the text in the plane of the screen while	 not  rotating
	       it into or out of the screen; etc.

       -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.
