Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
−−fill percent
Specify the percent (0-100) of the screen which must be filled before the screen is cleared. 60-80 percent are good values.
−−count number
The number of squiralies. By default, the screen width divided by 32.
−−scale number
Line thickness.
−−delay usec
The wait between steps. The default is 1000.
−−disorder fraction
The fraction of the time a squiraly will choose a new direction. The default is 0.005.
−−handedness fraction
The fraction of the time a squiraly will choose to enter lefthanded mode. 0.0 means exclusively right-handed behavior, 0.5 (the default) is a balance between the two, and 1.0 is exclusively left-handed behaviour.
