DESCRIPTION
Xneko displays a window in which a cat chases your "mouse" cursor.
Try moving the mouse inside and outside the xneko window, leaving it
stationary, moving it slowly and quickly, etc., and watch the cat
respond.
To exit, either click the 3rd mouse button on the xneko window, or hit
Meta-Q
All options except the last four above behave in the standard manner
for X applications (see X(1)). The -speed option controls the speed
of the cat (the default is 16). The -time option controls the
interval (in microseconds) between updates of the xneko window (the
default is 125000).
The -root option allows xneko to operate on the root as opposed to
creating and running in its own window.
The -help option provides a usage message and exits.
The program was originally written by a Japanese author as a Macintosh
desktop accessory (The word "neko" means "cat" in Japanese).
The capabilities to use color and to run on the root window were added
by Dan Checkoway
