NAME

       halftone - simple halftone pattern of moving mass points

SYNOPSIS

       halftone  [-display  host:display.screen]  [-visual  visual]  [-window] [-root] [-count number] [-spacing
       number] [-sizefactor number] [-delay number]  [-minmass  number]  [-maxmass  number]  [-minspeed  number]
       [-maxspeed number] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION

       Draws  the  gravity  force  in  each point on the screen seen through a halftone dot pattern. The gravity
       force is calculated from a set of moving mass points. View it from a distance for best effect.

       -sizefactor number
               How big each halftone dot should be drawn compared to the spacing value. Default: 1.5

       -minmass number
               The minimum mass of each mass point. Default: 0.001

       -maxmass number
               The maximum mass of each mass point. Default: 0.02

       -minspeed number

       -maxspeed number
               The  maximum  speed  of  each  mass  point.  Default:  0.02  -delay  number  Per-frame  delay, in
               microseconds.  Default: 10000

       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
