SYNOPSIS

moons_in_y] [-s density] [-b]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the pngphoon command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
pngphoon is a program that creates a PNG image of the current phase of
the moon. It is a successor to xphoon but does not write to the root
window, but to a file. You can use it with window managers that accept
commands for their background image settings. It is pronounced
"pingphoon" (like "typhoon").
OPTIONS
This program takes the following options.
-h Mandatory. Gives the image height. The image must be at least
760px high to be able to contain the moon. If the image is
smaller only the stars will be plotted.
-w Mandatory. Gives the image width. The image must be at least
760px wide to be able to contain the moon. If the image is
smaller only the stars will be plotted.
-f Mandatory. File name the PNG image shall be written to, for
output to stdout use - instead of a filename
-x Number of moons in x axis (for multihead configurations)
-y Number of moons in y axis (for multihead configurations)
-s Star density
-b Black (no earthlight)
