+[\-fps]
+.SH 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.
+.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: 20000 (0.02 seconds).
+.TP 8
+.B \-speed \fInumber\fP
+Animation speed. 2.0 means twice as fast, 0.5 means half as fast.
+.TP 8
+.B \-width \fInumber\fP
+Columns of the display. Default: 22.
+.TP 8
+.B \-height \fInumber\fP
+Rows of the display. Default: 8.
+.TP 8
+.B \-mode clock12
+Display a 12-hour clock.
+.TP 8
+.B \-mode clock24
+Display a 24-hour clock.
+.TP 8
+.B \-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.
+.TP 8
+.B \-no\-front
+Allow spins to go all the way around or upside down.
+.TP 8
+.B \-wander | \-no-wander
+Whether the object should wander around the screen.
+.TP 8
+.B \-spin
+Which axes around which the text should spin. The default is "XYZ",
+meaning rotate it freely in space. "\fB\-spin Z\fP" would rotate the
+text in the plane of the screen while not rotating it into or out
+of the screen; etc.
+.TP 8
+.B \-wireframe | \-no-wireframe
+Render in wireframe instead of solid.
+.TP 8
+.B \-fps | \-no-fps
+Whether to show a frames-per-second display at the bottom of the screen.
+.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.
