DESCRIPTION

These closed objects are commonly called spherical harmon
ics, although they are only remotely related to the mathe
matical definition found in the solution to certain wave
functions, most notable the eigenfunctions of angular
momentum operators.

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: 30000
(0.03 seconds.).

-duration number

Duration. 5 - 1000. Default: 500.

-resolution number

Resolution. 5 - 100. Default: 64.

-wander | -no-wander

Whether the object should wander around the
screen.

-spin [XYZ]

Around which axes should the object spin?

-no-spin

Don't spin.

-wireframe

Render in wireframe instead of solid.

-smooth | -no-smooth

Smoothed Lines. Boolean.

-grid | -no-grid

Draw Grid. Boolean.

-bbox | -no-bbox

Draw Bounding Box. Boolean.

-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_MAN
AGER property.
