lockward draws a spinning, rotating set of notched wheels
overlaid with some flashing effects, using OpenGL. It's a sort of cross
between the wards in a combination lock and those old information displays
that animated via polarized light.

or the ID number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.
- -window
- Draw on a newly-created window (default).
- -root
- Draw on the root window.
- -delay
microseconds
- Per-frame delay, in microseconds. Default: 20000 (50 frames/sec).
- -blink |
-no-blink
- Enables/disables the blinking effects. Default: Enabled.
- -fps
- Display the current frame rate, CPU load, and polygon count.
- -rotateidle-min
milliseconds
- -rotateidle-max
milliseconds
- The minimum and maximum time each spinner will sit idle, in milliseconds.
Defaults: Min 1000, max 6000.
- -blinkidle-min
milliseconds
- -blinkidle-max
milliseconds
- The minimum and maximum time between blinking effects, in milliseconds.
Defaults: Min 1000, max 9000.
- -blinkdwell-min
milliseconds
- -blinkdwell-max
milliseconds
- The minimum and maximum dwell time for the blinking effects, in
milliseconds. This affects how quickly the blinks actually happen.
Defaults: Min 100, max 600.
- DISPLAY
- Default host and display number.
