SYNOPSIS

       imsmap  [--display  host:display.screen]  [--foreground  color]  [--background color] [--window] [--root]
       [--window-id number][--mono] [--install] [--visual visual] [--ncolors int]  [--delay  seconds]  [--delay2
       microseconds] [--iterations int] [--mode h|s|v|random] [--fps]

DESCRIPTION

       The  imsmap  program  generates  map  or cloud-like patterns.  It looks quite different in monochrome and
       color.

OPTIONS

       imsmap accepts the following options:

       --window
               Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.

       --root  Draw on the root window.

       --window-id number
               Draw on the specified window.

       --mono  If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       --install
               Install a private colormap for the window.

       --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.

       --ncolors integer
               How many colors to use.  Default 50.

       --delay integer
               How long to delay between images.  Default 10 seconds.

       --delay2 integer
               How long to delay between bitmaps.  Default 200000 (0.2 seconds).

       --iterations integer
               A measure of the resolution of the resultant image, from 0 to 7.  Default 7.

       --mode [ hue | saturation | value | random ]
               The  axis  upon  which colors should be interpolated between the foreground and background color.
               Default random.

       --fps   Display the current frame rate and CPU load.

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_MANAGER property.

       XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW
               The window ID to use with --root.
