This is the default. -.TP 8 -.B \-root -Draw on the root window. -.TP 8 -.B \-install -Install a private colormap for the window. -.TP 8 -.B \-visual \fIvisual\fP\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 \-text \fIstring\fP -The text to display. This may contain newlines, but it shouldn't be -very long. The default is to display the machine name and OS version. - -This may also be a format string acceptable to -.BR date (1) -and -.BR strftime (3) , -in which case, it will be updated once a second. So to make this -program display a spinning digital clock, you could do this: -.nf -.sp - gltext -text "%A%n%d %b %Y%n%l:%M:%S %p" -.sp -.fi -To include a literal `%', you must double it: `%%'. - -See the man page for -.BR strftime (3) -for more details. -.TP 8 -.B \-program \fIcommand\fP -The given program is run, and its output is displayed. -If specified, this overrides \fI\-text\fP. -The output of this program will be repeatedely displayed, with new -pages of text shifting in every few seconds. Lines should be relatively -short. You might try: -.nf -.sp - -program 'xscreensaver-text --cols 20' -.sp -.fi -.TP 8 -.B \-maxlines -Set the number of lines of text to display. By default, -.I gltext -will print 8 lines of text at a time. Use this option to increase or -decrease that number. Be aware that -.I gltext -is designed to work with a fairly small amount of text, so setting this -value too high might result in slow performance or strange behaviour -stemming from buffer overflows. Increase at your own risk. -.TP 8 -.B \-mono -Display the text in a monospace font. Default is a variable-width font. -.TP 8 -.B \-no\-mono -Display the text in a variable-width font. This is the default. -.TP 8 -.B \-wander -Move the text around the screen. This is the default. -.TP 8 -.B \-no\-wander -Keep the text centered on the screen. -.TP 8 -.B \-wander\-speed -Sets the speed at which the text wanders around. Default is 0.02. -.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 \-no\-spin -Don't spin the text at all: the same as \fB\-spin ""\fP. -.TP 8 -.B \-front -When spinning, never spin all the way around or upside down: -always face mostly forward so that the text is easily readable. -.TP 8 -.B \-no\-front -Allow spins to go all the way around or upside down. This is the default. -.TP 8 -.B \-wireframe -Render in wireframe instead of solid. -.TP 8 -.B \-fps -Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count. -.TP 8 -.B \-scale -Sets the scale at which the text is rendered. Bigger values will result -in bigger text; smaller values will result in smaller text. The default -value is 0.01. -.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) -.BR xscreensaver\-text (MANSUFFIX) -.SH COPYRIGHT -Copyright \(co 2001-2014 by Jamie Zawinski. -Permission to use, copy, modify, distribute, and sell this software and -its documentation for any purpose is hereby granted without fee, -provided that the above copyright notice appear in all copies and that -both that copyright notice and this permission notice appear in -supporting documentation.
