DESCRIPTION
       Draws a stick-man juggling various collections of objects.

OPTIONS
       juggler3d accepts the following options:

       -display host:display.screen
               X11 display to use.  Overrides DISPLAY environment variable.

       -root   Draw on the root window.

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

       -mono   Draw in monochrome.

       -install | -noinstall
               Turn on/off installing colormap.

       -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-id id
               Draw on an already existing X window.

       -pattern " pattern "
               Specify juggling pattern in annotated site-swap notation.  In
               site-swap notation, the "height" of each throw is given.  E.g.,
               "3" is the height needed to juggle a 3-Cascade.  Note that
               these sequences need to be chosen carefully, to avoid
               collisions.

               Annotations indicate relative hand movements or tricks:

               -   Inside throw (default)
               *   Outside throw
               =   Cross Throw
               &   Cross Catch
               x   Cross Throw and Catch
               _   Bounce

       -pattern "[ pattern ]"
               Specify juggling pattern in annotated Adam notation.  Adam
               notation is a little harder to visualize.  Each integer n
               represents a cyclic permutation of (0...n).  The equivalent
               site-swap value is determined by calculating how many of the
               permutations it takes to get back to the identity.  The largest
               number used is the same as the number of objects in the
               pattern.  The advantage of Adam notation is that these
               sequences do not need to be chosen carefully, since all
               possible sequences are juggle-able.  Annotations are the same
               as in site-swap notation.

               For example, both of these describe a 3-Shower:

               -pattern "+5 1"

               -pattern "[+3 1]"

               For further examples, see the portfolio list in the source
               code.

       -tail number
               Minimum Trail Length.  0 - 100.  Default: 1.  Objects may
               override this, for example flaming torches always leave a
               trail.

       -real|-no-real
               Turn on/off real-time juggling.  Deprecated.  There should be
               no need to turn off real-time juggling, even on slow systems.
               Adjust speed using -count above.

       -describe|-no-describe
               Turn on/off pattern descriptions.

       -balls|-no-balls
               Turn on/off Balls.

       -clubs|-no-clubs
               Turn on/off Clubs.

       -torches|-no-torches
               Turn on/off Flaming Torches.

       -knives|-no-knives
               Turn on/off Knives.

       -rings|-no-rings
               Turn on/off Rings.

       -bballs|-no-bballs
               Turn on/off Bowling Balls.

       -count number
               Speed. 50 - 1000.  Default: 200.  This determines the expected
               time interval between a throw and the next catch, in
               milliseconds.

       -cycles number
               Performance Length. 50 - 1000.  Default: 1000.  Setting this
               smaller will force the juggler to switch patterns (and objects)
               more often.

       -delay delay
               Additional delay between frames, in microseconds.  Default:
               10000.  Deprecated.  Adjust speed using -count.

       -ncolors ncolors
               Maximum number of colors to use.  Default: 32.

       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.

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.
