7.SH DESCRIPTION
8The \fIhypercube\fP program displays a wireframe projection of a hypercube
9which is rotating at user-specified rates around any or all of its four axes.
10.SH OPTIONS
11.I hypercube
12accepts the following options:
13.TP 8
14.B \-window
15Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
16.TP 8
17.B \-root
18Draw on the root window.
19.TP 8
20.B \-mono
21If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.
22.TP 8
23.B \-install
24Install a private colormap for the window.
25.TP 8
26.B \-visual \fIvisual\fP
27Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the name of a visual class,
28or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
29.TP 8
30.B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP
31How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation.
32Default 100000, or about 1/10th second.
33.TP 8
34.B \-observer-z \fIint\fP
35How far away the observer is from the center of the cube (the cube is one
36unit per side.)  Default 5.
37.TP 8
38.B \-color0 \fIcolor\fP
39.TP 8
40.B \-color1 \fIcolor\fP
41.TP 8
42.B \-color2 \fIcolor\fP
43.TP 8
44.B \-color3 \fIcolor\fP
45.TP 8
46.B \-color4 \fIcolor\fP
47.TP 8
48.B \-color5 \fIcolor\fP
49.TP 8
50.B \-color6 \fIcolor\fP
51.TP 8
52.B \-color7 \fIcolor\fP
53The colors used to draw the line segments bordering the eight faces of
54the cube.  Some of the faces have only two of their border-lines drawn in
55the specified color, and some have all four.
56.TP 8
57.B \-xw \fIfloat\fP
58.TP 8
59.B \-xy \fIfloat\fP
60.TP 8
61.B \-xz \fIfloat\fP
62.TP 8
63.B \-yw \fIfloat\fP
64.TP 8
65.B \-yz \fIfloat\fP
66.TP 8
67.B \-zw \fIfloat\fP
68The amount that the cube should be rotated around the specified axis at
69each frame of the animation, expressed in radians.  These should be small
70floating-point values (less than 0.05 works best.)  Default: xy=0.01,
71xz=0.005, yw=0.01.
72.SH ENVIRONMENT
73.PP
74.TP 8
75.B DISPLAY
76to get the default host and display number.
77.TP 8
78.B XENVIRONMENT
79to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources
80stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
