NAME
dice - dice roll utility for The X11 Windows System.
SYNOPSIS
dice [-options] [-toolkitoption ...]
DESCRIPTION
dice opens a window a displays two 6 sided dice. clicking a mouse
button in the window "rolls" the dice, using the unix random ()
function to calculate the resulting values. The 'q' key exits the
application.
The following resources are defined, with their associated command
line options:
minTurns, maxTurns
(-min n, -max n) Set a boundry on the number of tumbles that the
dice are allowed to take. The default is 50 to 200.
delay
(-delay n) Set the delay factor. This is an asthetic value and
varies with the speed of the hardware, the default is 3000, which
looks good on a 100Mhz R4000.
matColor, diceColor, dotColor
(-mat_color color, -dice_color color, -dot_color color) set the
color for the background, the dice and the spots, respectively.
sync (-sync bool) Synchronize the X display. This is on by default,
and keeps the events from getting batched for transmission,
resulting in a more natural spin.
