Name

xroach - cockroaches hide under your windows

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 display_name: Drop the roaches on the given display. Make sure the display is nearby, so you can hear the screams.
-rc roach_color: Use the given string as the color for the bugs instead of the default "black".
-speed roach_speed: 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 num_roaches: This is the number of the little critters. Default is 10.
-squish: Enables roach squishing. Point and shoot with any mouse button.
-rgc roach_gut_color: Sets color of the guts that spill out of squished roaches. We recommend yellowgreen.

Bugs
