15through 12 channels, some with images you give it, and some with color
16bars or nothing but static.

18The images that it uses will be grabbed from the portion of the screen
19underlying the window, or from the system's video input, or from a
20random file on disk, as indicated by the \fIgrabDesktopImages\fP,
21\fIgrabVideoFrames\fP, and \fIchooseRandomImages\fP options in the
22\fI~/.xscreensaver\fP file; see
