       [-background color] [-window] [-root]  [-mono]  [-install]
       [-visual  visual]  [-colors integer] [-iterations integer]
       [-points integer] [-delay microseconds] [-delay2 microsec-

DESCRIPTION
       The flame program generates colorful fractal displays.

OPTIONS
       flame accepts the following options:

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

       -root   Draw on the root window.

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

       -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.

       -colors integer
               How  many  colors  should  be  used (if possible).
               Default 64.

       -iterations integer
               How many fractals to generate.  Default 25.

       -points integer
               How many pixels to draw for each fractal.  Default
               10000.

       -delay microseconds
               How long we should wait between drawing each frac-
               tal.  Default 50000, or about 1/20th second.

       -delay2 microseconds
               How long we should wait before clearing the screen
               when  each run ends.  Default 2000000, or two sec-
               onds.

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_MAN-
               AGER property.
