NAME
hypercube - 2d projection of a 4d object
SYNOPSIS
hypercube [-display host:display.screen] [-foreground color] [-background color] [-color[0-7] color] [-xy float] [-xz float] [-yz float] [-xw float] [-yw float] [-zw float] [-observer-z int] [-delay usecs] [-window] [-root] [-mono] [-install] [-visual visual]
DESCRIPTION
The hypercube program displays a wireframe projection of a hypercube which is rotating at user-specified rates around any or all of its four axes.
OPTIONS
hypercube 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.
-delay microseconds
How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation. Default 100000, or about 1/10th second.
-observer-z int
How far away the observer is from the center of the cube (the cube is one unit per side.) Default 5.
-color0 color
-color1 color
-color2 color
-color3 color
-color4 color
-color5 color
-color6 color
-color7 color
The colors used to draw the line segments bordering the eight faces of the cube. Some of the faces have only two of their border-lines drawn in the specified color, and some have all four.
-xw float
-xy float
-xz float
-yw float
-yz float
-zw float
The amount that the cube should be rotated around the specified axis at each frame of the animation, expressed in radians. These should be small floating-point values (less than 0.05 works best.) Default: xy=0.01, xz=0.005, yw=0.01.
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.
