OPTIONS

Xsplinefun accepts all the usual X flags and resources, such as -display, -sync, and -xrm.

Xsplinefun also accepts the following flags:

-forwards
Rotates the colormap forwards. X resource: rotation: f.
-backwards
Rotates the colormap backwards. X resource: rotation: b.
-maxcolors
Specifies the maximum number of colormap entries that will be used. If this many are not available, fewer will be used, but if more than this many are available they will be left free for other applications. X resource: maxcolors. Default: 256.
-loops
Specifies the desired number of loops per second. Xsplinefun attempts to maintain this speed by adaptively varying the duration and freqency of sleeps. If your X server is not capable of the requested speed, it will do the best it can. X resource: loops. Default: 50.
-id
Forks a background process and prints the process-id to stdout. Useful if you want to make a menu command to kill xsplinefun. X resource: id. Default: off.
