# OPTIONS
|
||
|
||
**-p path**: Look in the specified **path** for data files.
|
||
|
||
**-d delaymult**: Apply a rational multiplier to the standard delay of 1s.
|
||
|
||
**-H**: Launch a HUD with running timers for each demo. This HUD can be moved or closed with the mouse.
|
||
|
||
**-k**: Inhibit use of the alternate screen. Necessary if you want the output left on your terminal after the program exits.
|
||
|
||
**-c**: Do not attempt to seed the PRNG. This is useful when benchmarking.
|
||
|
||
**-h**: Print a usage message, and exit with success.
|
||
|
||
**-V**: Print the program name and version, and exit with success.
|
||

demospec: Select which demos to run, and what order to run them in. The default is **ixetcgswubvlpo**. See above for a list of demos.
|
||
|
||
# NOTES
|
||
Proper display requires:
|
||
* A terminal advertising the **rgb** terminfo(5) capability, or that the environment variable **COLORTERM** is defined to **24bit** (and that the terminal honors this variable),
|
||
* A monospaced font, and
|
||
* Good Unicode support in your libc, font, and terminal emulator.
