NAME
       slidescreen - permute the screen image like an 8-puzzle

SYNOPSIS
       slidescreen  [-display host:display.screen] [-background color] [-grid-
       size pixels] [-ibw pixels] [-increment pixels] [-delay usecs]  [-delay2
       usecs] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual visual]

DESCRIPTION
       The slidescreen program takes an image of the screen, divides it into a
       grid, deletes a random square of that grid, and	then  randomly	slides
       one of the neighbors of this "hole" into the hole (and repeat.)

OPTIONS
       slidescreen accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -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.

       -grid-size pixels
	       The size of the grid cells.  Default 70 pixels.

       -ibw pixels
	       The size of the "gutter" between grid cells.  Default 1 pixel.

       -increment pixels
	       How  many  pixels by which a piece should be moved when sliding
	       to a new location.  Default 10 pixels.

       -delay microseconds
	       How much of a delay should be introduced between steps  of  the
	       animation  of the motion of each segment.  Default 50000, which
	       is 0.05 seconds.	 This is closely  related  to  the  -increment
	       parameter.

       -delay microseconds
	       How much of a delay should be introduced between the end of the
	       motion of one segment  and  the	beginning  of  the  motion  of
	       another.	 Default 1000000, which is one second.

RESOURCES
       On  some	 systems  (currently, only SGIs), this program can, instead of
       grabbing a desktop image, grab a frame of video from an external camera
       and manipulate that instead.  The following resources control that.

       grabVideoProbability (Float)
	       What  portion  of  the  time to grab video rather than a screen
	       image, between 0.0 and 1.0.  Defaults to 0.5, or half the time.

       videoDevice (Integer)
	       The number of the default video input device  to	 check	first.
	       If unspecified, the default camera (from videopanel(1)) will be
	       checked first.  After that, all	other  available  video	 input
	       devices will be checked in order.

	       The  first  one	which produces a non-black image will be used.
	       If all images are black, the others will be  re-checked	a  few
	       times  before  giving  up and falling back to simply grabbing a
	       desktop image (but note that this takes a few  seconds,	so  if
	       you don't actually have any video sources hooked up, you should
	       consider turning off video grabbing by setting  grabVideoProba‐
	       bility to 0.0.)

       videoGain (Float)
	       The  amount  by	which  to  brighten  the  grabbed image.  This
	       defaults to 2.2.

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.
