.TH clover 1 "6 March 1989" "X Version 11"
.SH NAME
clover \- a color map hack for X
.SH SYNTAX
.B clover
[ \fIoptions\fR ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Clover
draws a symmetric image and animates it by manipulating the display's 
colormap.
Clover tries very hard to be ICCCM compliant, which means that it counts
on the window manager to install its private color map. The animation won't be
apparent until you get the window manager's attention (usually by directing
input focus to clover's window).
.PP
The animation speed varies \- clicking in the window resets the delay between
steps to the inital value.
Typing 'q' in the window terminates the program.
.SH OPTIONS
In addition to the standard X toolkit command line and resource options, 
.I clover
understands three others:
.TP
.BI -colors \ n
Use
at most 
.I n
colormap cells for the animation. 
The default is MAX(15, sizeof(colorMap)). 
More colors make for a more interesting display, but can slow things down
considerably.
.TP
.BI -radius \ r
Use 
.I r
as the `radius' of the image.
.TP
.BI -speed \ s
Use
.I s
as the inital delay between steps in the animation.
.PP
The default geometry value covers the entire display.
.SH NOTE
.I Clover
can only run on a display with a 
.IR PseudoColor ,
.IR DirectColor ,
or
.I GrayScale
visual.

It probably won't work right under uwm.
