An illustration of -the signal received from it was published in Scientific American in 1971, -and later in The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Astronomy in 1977, where it was -seen by Stephen Morris, the drummer of Joy Division, and was consequently -appropriated by Peter Saville for the cover of the band's album "Unknown -Pleasures". -.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 \-speed \fInumber\fP -Animation speed. 2 for twice as fast, 0.5 for half as fast. -.TP 8 -.B \-count \fInumber\fP -Scanlines (vertical resolution). Default: 80. -.TP 8 -.B \-resolution \fInumber\fP -Horizontal Resolution, Default: 100. -.TP 8 -.B \-amplitude \fInumber\fP -Height of the waves, 0 - 1.0. Default: 0.13. -.TP 8 -.B \-noise \fInumber\fP -How noisy the signal is. 2 for twice as noisy, 0.5 for half as noisy. -.TP 8 -.B \-mask \fIfile\fP -Use the given image file as a clipping mask against the data. -A high contrast image of around 256x256 works best. -Signal peaks appear in the dark areas. -.TP 8 -.B \-ortho | \-no-ortho -Whether to use an orthographic projection. -.TP 8 -.B \-buzz | \-no-buzz -Whether each line should seethe with noise. -.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. -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR X (1), -.BR xscreensaver (1) -.SH COPYRIGHT -Copyright \(co 2013-2018 by Jamie Zawinski.
