DESCRIPTION

This program animates a puzzle called Rubik's Mirror Blocks. The moves are chosen randomly.

OPTIONS

rubikblocks accepts the following options: -window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default. -root Draw on the root window. -install 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. -delay microseconds How long to pause between frames. Default is 20000, or 0.02 second. -texture Use texture maps. This is the default. -no-texture Use solid colors. Looks a bit weird. -mono Disable both texture maps and colors. Ditto. -wireframe Only draw outlines. Outlines of each piece, not only the whole object, are drawn. -spin Spin the whole object around X, Y and Z axes. This is the default. -no-spin Do not spin, stay in the same tilt all the time. -wander Move the object around the screen. This is the default. -no-wander Keep the object centered on the screen. -randomize Shuffle the puzzle randomly at startup. This is the default. -no-randomize Do not shuffle at startup, begin at the shape of cube. -spinspeed number The relative speed of spinning. Default is 1.0. -rotspeed number The relative speed of the moves. Default is 3.0. Setting to <= 0.0 makes the object stay at one configuration. -wanderspeed number The relative speed of wandering around the screen. Default is 0.02. -wait number How long to stay at final position after each move. The meaning of the argument is again relative. Default is 40.0. -cubesize number Size of the object. Value of 3.0 fills roughly all the screen. -fps Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

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.
