XROACH(1)                   X Version 11(Release 4)                   XROACH(1)


NAME
      xroach - cockroaches hide under your windows

SYNOPSIS
      xroach [-option .,..]

DESCRIPTION
      Xroach displays disgusting cockroaches on your root window. These creapy
      crawlies scamper around until they find a window to hide under. Whenever
      you move or iconify a window, the exposed orthopteras again scamper for
      cover.

OPTIONS
      -display displayname
              Drop the roaches on the given display. Make sure the display is
              nearby, so you can hear the screams.

      -rc roachcolor
              Use the given string as the color for the bugs instead of the
              default "black".

      -speed roachspeed
              Use the given speed for the insects instead of the default 20.0.
              For example, in winter the speed should be set to 5.0. In summer,
              30.0 might be about right.

      -roaches numroaches
              This is the number of the little critters. Default is 10.

      -squish Enables roach squishing.  Point and shoot with any mouse button.

      -rgc roachgutcolor
              Sets color of the guts that spill out of squished roaches.  We
              recommend yellowgreen.

BUGS
      As given by the -roaches option. Default is 10.
