NAME
       carousel - displays multiple images rotating in a circular formation

SYNOPSIS
       carousel [-display host:display.screen] [-visual visual] [-window]
       [-root] [-count int] [-zoom | -no-zoom] [-tilt XY] [-titles |
       -no-titles] [-font font] [-speed ratio] [-duration seconds] [-fps]
       [-debug] [-wireframe]

DESCRIPTION
       Loads several random images, and displays them flying in a circular
       formation.  The circle changes speed and direction randomly, tilts on
       its axis, and the images move in and out.

       This program requires a good video card capable of supporting large
       textures.

       To specify the directory that images are loaded from, run
       xscreensaver-demo(1) and click on the "Advanced" tab.

OPTIONS
       -visual visual
               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.

       -window Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -count int
               How many images to display.  Default 7.

       -zoom | -no-zoom
               Whether the images should move in and out (toward and away from
               the axis of rotation).  Default true.

       -tilt XY | -no-tilt
               Whether the axis of rotation should tilt, and how.  -tilt X
               means that it will tilt toward and away from the viewer.  -tilt
               Y means that it will tilt to the left and right of the screen.
               -tilt XY (the default) means it will do both.

       -titles | -no-titles
               Whether to display the file names of the images beneath them.
               Default: yes.

       -font font-name
               The font to use for titles.  Note that the size of the font
               affects the clarity of the characters, not their size (it is
               auto-scaled.)

       -duration seconds
               Every duration seconds, one of the images will be replaced with
               a new one.  Default 20 seconds.

       -speed ratio
               Speed up or slow down the animation.  0.5 means half as fast as
               the default; 2.0 means twice as fast.

       -delay number
               Per-frame delay, in microseconds.  Default: 20000 (0.02
               seconds.).

       -fps    Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

       -debug  Prints debugging info to stderr.

       -wireframe
               Another debug mode.

ENVIRONMENT
       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
               to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global
               resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
