NAME
     vine - grow vines

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/games/vine [options]

DESCRIPTION
     vine creates interesting growing things on your screen. To halt the
     kudzu-like onslaught, type an interrupt.

OPTIONS
     -e        Grow vines along the edge of the window.

     -c        Grow vines from the center of the window.

     -h        Exit if the RETURN key is pressed.

     -r        Display in reverse video.

     -i[num]   Interleave black/white leaves, one black for every num white
               ones.  If num is negative, perform white/black interleaving.

     -s[size]  Set maximum size of leaves (default is 2).

     -d device Use alternate device.  Possible values for device are borrow
               (use entire display), borrow_nc (same as borrow but doesn't
               clear screen first), direct (in current window only), and bg
               (use display background).

     -v[num]   Grow num vines from the top of the window.

     -bnum     Specify num as probability of branching (default 5).

     -lnum     As num increases (to maximum 35), more leaves grow from each
               stem.

     -Rnum     Specify num different leaf directions; rotate num degrees for
               each leaf.

     -q        Display usage information.

EXAMPLE
     An especially pretty liana can be generated with

          vine -e -i2

CAUTION
     The -c option creates immense numbers of forks, perhaps taking over your
     machine for lengthy periods.
