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. __-ncolors__ ''integer'' How many colors should be used (if possible). Default 200. __-cycles__ ''integer'' __-count__ ''integer'' __-size__ ''integer'' How large the pixels in the flag should be, from 1 to 8. If this is a negative number, the pixel size is chosen randomly from the range 1 to -size. Default -7. __-text__ ''text'' The text to display in the flag. Multiple lines of text are allowed; the lines will be displayed centered atop one another. Default: none. If the text is the magic string '''', then the text used will be the local machine name; a newline; and the local OS version. __-bitmap__ ''xbm-file'' The bitmap to display in the flag; this must be an XBM file (color XPMs are not allowed.) Default: none. If the bitmap is the magic string '''', then the bitmap used will be a charming little picture of J. R. '' If neither ''-text'' nor ''-bitmap'' are specified, then either the builtin text or the builtin bitmap will be chosen randomly. __-font__ ''font'' The font in which to draw the text; the default is !!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. !!SEE ALSO X(1), xscreensaver(1), xlock(1) !!COPYRIGHT Copyright 1996 Charles Vidal.
