.SH DESCRIPTION
These closed objects are commonly called spherical harmonics, although they
are only remotely related to the mathematical definition found in the
solution to certain wave functions, most notable the eigenfunctions of
angular momentum operators.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP 8
.B \-visual \fIvisual\fP
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.
.TP 8
.B \-window
Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.
.TP 8
.B \-root
Draw on the root window.
.TP 8
.B \-delay \fInumber\fP
Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 30000 (0.03 seconds.).
.TP 8
.B \-duration \fInumber\fP
Duration.  5 - 1000.  Default: 100.
.TP 8
.B \-resolution \fInumber\fP
Resolution.  5 - 100.  Default: 64.
.TP 8
.B \-wander | \-no-wander
Whether the object should wander around the screen.
.TP 8
.B \-spin \fI[XYZ]\fP
Around which axes should the object spin?
.TP 8
.B \-no-spin
Don't spin.
.TP 8
.B \-wireframe
Render in wireframe instead of solid.
.TP 8
.B \-smooth | \-no-smooth
Smoothed Lines.  Boolean.
.TP 8
.B \-grid | \-no-grid
Draw Grid.  Boolean.
.TP 8
.B \-bbox | \-no-bbox
Draw Bounding Box.  Boolean.
.TP 8
.B \-fps
Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
.SH ENVIRONMENT
.PP
.TP 8
.B DISPLAY
to get the default host and display number.
.TP 8
.B XENVIRONMENT
to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources
stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
