.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fIlmorph\fP program generates random spline-ish line drawings and
morphs between them.
.SH OPTIONS
.I lmorph
accepts the following options:
.TP 8

Number of points in each line drawing. Default is 200 points.
.TP 8
.B \-steps \fIinteger\fP
Interpolation steps from one drawing to the next. Default is 150. You
may specify 0, to get a random number between 100 and 500.
.TP 8
.B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP
How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation.
Default 70000.
.TP 8
.B \-figtype \fItype\fP
Limit the figures to only open or closed figures. Possible types are
"all" (default), "open" and "closed".
.TP 8

.B \-fps
