Description

       Simulates  a  split-flap  display,  an  old style of electromechanical sign as seen in airports and train
       stations, and commonly used in alarm clocks in the 1960s and 1970s.

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.

Name

       splitflap - a simulation of a split-flap electromechanical display.

Options

--visualvisual
               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.

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

       --root  Draw on the root window.

       --window-idnumber
               Draw on the specified window.

       --delaynumber
               Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 20000 (0.02 seconds).

       --speednumber
               Animation speed.  2.0 means twice as fast, 0.5 means half as fast.

       --widthnumber
               Columns of the display.  Default: 22.

       --heightnumber
               Rows of the display. Default: 8.

       --modeclock12
               Display a 12-hour clock.

       --modeclock24
               Display a 24-hour clock.

       --front|--no-front
               When  spinning,  never spin all the way around or upside down: always face mostly forward so that
               the text is easily readable.  This is the default.

       --no-front
               Allow spins to go all the way around or upside down.

       --wander|--no-wander
               Whether the object should wander around the screen.

       --spin  Which axes around which the text should spin.  The default is "XYZ", meaning rotate it freely  in
               space.  "--spinZ" would rotate the text in the plane of the screen while not rotating it into or
               out of the screen; etc.

       --wireframe|--no-wireframe
               Render in wireframe instead of solid.

       --fps|--no-fps
               Whether to show a frames-per-second display at the bottom of the screen.
