[-fps]
DESCRIPTION
The goop program draws a simulation of bubbles in layers of
overlapping multicolored translucent fluid.
OPTIONS
goop
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.
- -count integer
-
How many bubbles to draw per layer. Default: random.
- -planes integer
-
How many planes to draw. Default: random, based on screen depth.
- -delay microseconds
-
How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation.
Default 12000, or about 0.012 seconds.
- -transparent
-
If -layers is greater than 1, then each layer will be drawn in one
color, and when they overlap, the colors will be mixed. This is the default.
- -non-transparent
-
Turns off -transparent.
- -additive
-
If -transparent is specified, then this option means that the colors
will be mixed using an additive color model, as if the blobs were projected
light. This is the default.
- -subtractive
-
If -transparent is specified, then this option means that the
colors will be mixed using a subtractive color model, as if the blobs were
translucent filters.
- -xor
-
Draw with xor instead of the other color tricks.
- -fps
-
Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
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.
