💖 xrayswarm 💖

okay so you're looking at the manual for xrayswarm — that's the 6x one, part of the XScreenSaver crew, bestie. welcome to the swarm. 🦋✨

✨ NAME ✨

xrayswarm — swarms with color trails. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🐝🌈

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

xrayswarm [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual] [--window]
          [--root] [--window-id number] [--delay number] [--fps]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

It draws a few swarms of critters flying around the screen, and behind each one there's a nicely faded color trail. no cap, it's giving ✨ethereal bug ballet✨ — the trails are the main character energy here, fr fr. 💜

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • --visual visual — Specifies which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual. iykyk 🫶
  • --window — Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default. lowkey the go-to. 🪟
  • --root — Draw on the root window. big "i own this desktop" energy. 👑
  • --window-id number — Draw on the specified window. you pick, bestie. 🎯
  • --delay number — Per-frame delay, in microseconds. Default: 0 (0.00 seconds.). literally zero chill between frames. 💀

🧚 ENVIRONMENT 🧚

  • DISPLAY — to get the default host and display number. this is how it knows where to show up. 🙈
  • XENVIRONMENT — to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. the override file, the special-est of specials. ⭐
  • XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW — The window ID to use with --root. 🎀
