NAME
       bumps - move distorting spotlight around desktop

SYNOPSIS
       bumps  [-display  host:display.screen] [-foreground color] [-background
       color] [-window] [-root] [-mono] [-install]  [-visual  visual]  [-delay
       usecs] [-duration secs] [-fps]

DESCRIPTION
       The  bumps program takes an image and exposes small, distorted sections
       of it as if through an odd wandering spotlight beam.

       The image that it manipulates will be grabbed from the portion  of  the
       screen underlying the window, or from the system's video input, or from
       a random file on disk, as indicated by the grabDesktopImages, grabVide-
       oFrames,  and  chooseRandomImages  options in the ~/.xscreensaver file;
       see xscreensaver-demo(1) for more details.

OPTIONS
       bumps accepts the following options:

       -window Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -mono   If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       -install
               Install a private colormap for the window.

       -visual visual
               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.

       -delay microseconds
               Slow it down.

       -duration seconds
               How long to run before loading a new image.  Default  120  sec-
               onds.

       -fps    Display the current frame rate and CPU load.
