NAME
       hyperball - 2d projection of a 4d object

SYNOPSIS
       hyperball  [-display  host:display.screen]  [-foreground color] [-back‐
       ground color] [-xy float] [-xz float]  [-yz  float]  [-xw  float]  [-yw
       float]  [-zw float] [-delay usecs] [-window] [-root] [-mono] [-install]
       [-visual visual] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION
       The hyperball program displays a wireframe projection  of  a  hyperball
       which is rotating at user-specified rates around any or all of its four
       axes.

OPTIONS
       hyperball accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root 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.

       -delay microseconds
	       How much of a delay should be introduced between steps  of  the
	       animation.  Default 20000, or about 0.02 seconds.

       -xw float

       -xy float

       -xz float

       -yw float

       -yz float

       -zw float
	       The amount that the ball should be rotated around the specified
	       axis at each frame of the animation, expressed in  0.001	 radi‐
	       ans.  These should be small floating-point values (less than 50
	       works best.)  Default: xy=3, xz=5, yw=10.

       -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.
