DESCRIPTION
       The sballs program draws an animation of balls spinning like  crazy  in
       GL.

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -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.

       -fps    Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.

       -object object_number
	       Specify	how  the  spheres  are	grouped	 (forming  an object).
	       Objects are:

       1	 tetrahedron

       2	 cube. This is the default.

       3	 octahedron

       4	 dodecahedron

       5	 icosahedron

       -size viewport_size
	       Viewport of GL scene is specified size if greater than  32  and
	       less  than screensize. Default value is 0, meaning full screen‐
	       size.
