DESCRIPTION
       The laser program draws vaguely laser-like moving lines

OPTIONS
       laser 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.

       -ncolors integer
               How many colors  should  be  used  (if  possible).
               Default  64.   The  colors  used cycle through the
               hue, making N stops around the color wheel.

       -cycles integer
               Default 200.

       -count integer
               Default 10.

ENVIRONMENT

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