BEACH_BALL(1) — X Version 11 (Release 5)
NAME
beach_ball − display a bouncing sphere using PHIGS
SYNOPSIS
beach_ball
DESCRIPTION
beach_ball is a simple program that displays a bouncing multicolored pseudo-sphere (a beach ball). It uses filled polygons for the faces of the beach ball. Type beach_ball to run this program. You must type Control-C to exit this program, as it will run in a continuous loop.
On server implementations that have not been optimized, it may be hard to visualize the bouncing motion of the ball. Because PEX requests may be buffered in queues, there may be a delay between typing Control-C and the client exiting.
