xfroot - set fractal root window (monochrome) 23 September 1989 The only tailoring needed is the definition of "HZ" in xfroot.c, and that only if your client uses other than 60 HZ ticks in values returned by times(3c). Clients found to have 60 HZ ticks include: Convex C200 Sequent Symmetry Vaxstation 2000 Vaxserver 3500 Sun 3/50 & 3/60 Clients found to have other than 60 HZ ticks: Cray 2 (replace "#define HZ 60" with "#include <sys/param.h>" Cray X (replace "#define HZ 60" with "#include <sys/machd.h>" For other clients, checks the times(3c) man page. The man page lists fractal points/cp_second measured by xfroot on the clients listed above. I would appreciate hearing about values measured on other platforms. The Makefile was generated by imake on a Sequent Symmetry, but the "P = &" (parallel make) platform-specific parameter was commented out.
