NAME
puzzle - permute the screen image like a jigsaw puzzle
SYNOPSIS
puzzle [-display host:display.screen] [-background color]
[-delay usecs] [-window] [-root] [-install] [-visual
visual]
DESCRIPTION
The puzzle program takes an image of the screen, carves it
up into a crossword puzzle, shuffles it, and then solves
it.
OPTIONS
puzzle 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 wait between shuffling pieces; default
700000, or 0.7 seconds.
RESOURCES
On some systems (currently, only SGIs), this program can,
instead of grabbing a desktop image, grab a frame of video
from an external camera and manipulate that instead. The
following resources control that.
grabVideoProbability (Float)
What portion of the time to grab video rather than
a screen image, between 0.0 and 1.0. Defaults to
0.5, or half the time.
videoDevice (Integer)
The number of the default video input device to
check first. If unspecified, the default camera
(from videopanel(1)) will be checked first. After
that, all other available video input devices will
be checked in order.
The first one which produces a non-black image
will be used. If all images are black, the others
will be re-checked a few times before giving up
and falling back to simply grabbing a desktop
image (but note that this takes a few seconds, so
if you don't actually have any video sources
hooked up, you should consider turning off video
grabbing by setting grabVideoProbability to 0.0.)
videoGain (Float)
The amount by which to brighten the grabbed image.
This defaults to 2.2.
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.
