SYNOPSIShyperball [-display host:display.screen] [-foreground

DESCRIPTION
The hyperball program displays a wireframe projection of a
hyperball which is rotating at user-specified rates around
any or all of its four axes.
OPTIONShyperball accepts the following options:
-window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the
default.
-root Draw on the root window.
-mono If on a color display, pretend we're on a
monochrome display.
-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.
-delay microseconds
How much of a delay should be introduced between
steps of the animation. Default 100000, or about
1/10th second.
-observer-z int
How far away the observer is from the center of
the cube (the cube is one unit per side.) Default
5.
-xw float
-xy float
-xz float
-yw float
-yz float
-zw float
The amount that the ball should be rotated around
the specified axis at each frame of the animation,
expressed in radians. These should be small
floating-point values (less than 0.05 works best.)
Default: xy=0.01, xz=0.005, yw=0.01.
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_MAN
AGER property.
