-.TH XScreenSaver 1 "13-aug-92" "X Version 11"
-.SH NAME
-rocks \- animation of flying through an asteroid field
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B rocks
-[\-display \fIhost:display.screen\fP] [\-foreground \fIcolor\fP] [\-background \fIcolor\fP] [\-window] [\-root] [\-mono] [\-ncolors \fIn\fP] [\-install] [\-visual \fIvisual\fP] [\-count \fIinteger\fP] [\-delay \fIusecs\fP] [\-speed \fIinteger\fP] [\-norotate] [\-nomove] [\-3d]
-[\-fps]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The \fIrocks\fP program draws an animation of an asteroid field moving past
-the observer (or vice versa). Sometimes the observer picks up spin on Z axis.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.I rocks
-accepts the following options:
-.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 \-mono
-Make all the rocks the same color.
-.TP 8
-.B \-ncolors colors
-How many different colors to use. Default 5. Colors are chosen randomly.
-.TP 8
-.B \-install
-Install a private colormap for the window.
-.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 \-count \fIinteger\fP
-Maximum number of rocks to draw on the screen at once. Default 100.
-.TP 8
-.B \-speed \fIinteger\fP
-A measure of the speed with which the observer and the rocks pass each other,
-from 1 to 100. Default 100, meaning ``very fast.'' If you're on a slow
-display connection (the animation looks jerky) then try making this number
-smaller, and/or decreasing the number of rocks.
-.TP 8
-.B \-delay \fImicroseconds\fP
-Number of microseconds to delay between each frame. Default 50000, meaning
-about 1/20th second. Compare and contrast with \fI\-speed\fP, above.
-.TP 8
-.B \-norotate
-Don't rotate the observer; just fly through the field on the level.
-.TP 8
-.B \-nomove
-Don't turn the observer; just fly straight ahead through the field.
-.TP 8
-.B \-3d
-Do red/blue 3d separations: if you look at the screen with 3d glasses,
-the rocks will be \fIjumping\fP right \fIout\fP at you. Oooooh, scaaary!
-.TP 8
-.B \-fps
-Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
-.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.
-.SH SEE ALSO
-.BR X (1),
-.BR xscreensaver (1)
-.SH BUGS
-There should be an option to display doppler shift (a gravity rainbow.)
-
-Speed of rotation should be settable.
-
-Default speed of rotation should be relative to forward velocity.
