30.B \-iterations \fIinteger\fP
31How many dots should be drawn each time.  Default 4000.
32.TP 8
33.B \-offset \fIinteger\fP
34How far apart the dots should be.  Default 4 pixels.
35.TP 8
36.B \-xsymmetry
37Whether the images should be horizontally symmetrical.  Default true.
38.TP 8
39.B \-ysymmetry
40Whether the images should be vertically symmetrical.  Default false.
41.TP 8
42.B \-erase\-mode \fIinteger\fP
43This sets the erase mode. Mode \-1 chooses a random mode each time. There
44are currently 6 modes defined (0\-5).
45.TP 8
46.B \-erase\-speed \fIusecs\fP
47This controls the speed at which the screen will be erased. (Delay between
48erasing of individual lines.)
49.TP 8
50.B \-delay \fIseconds\fP
51This sets the number of seconds that the figure will be on the screen.
