       -mono   If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

               Install a private colormap for the window.

       -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.

       -ncolors integer
               How many colors should be used (if possible).  Default 64.  The
               colors are chosen randomly.

       -count integer
               Default 12.

       -decay

       -no-decay

       -trail

       -no-trail
               Whether the objects should leave trails behind them (makes it
               look vaguely like a cloud-chamber.
