NAME

       bsod - Blue Screen of Death emulator


SYNOPSIS

       bsod  [-display	host:display.screen]  [-foreground color] [-background
       color] [-window] [-root] [-mono] [-install]  [-visual  visual]  [-delay
       seconds]


DESCRIPTION

       The bsod program is the finest in personal computer emulation.

       bsod steps through a set of screens, each one a recreation of a differ-
       ent failure mode of an operating system.  Systems depicted include Win-
       dows  3.1,  Windows  95,  Windows  NT, MS-DOS, AmigaDOS 1.3, Linux, SCO
       UNIX, BSD UNIX, HPUX, Solaris, Tru64, VMS, HVX/GCOS6, IBM OS/390, OS/2,
       MacOS (MacsBug, Bomb, Sad Mac, and OSX), Atari ST, Apple ][+, and NCD X
       Terminals.



OPTIONS

       bsod accepts the following options:

       -window Draw on a newly-created window.	This is the default.

       -root   Draw on the root window.

       -mono   If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

       -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.

       -delay delay
	       The delay between displaying one crash and another.

       -only which
	       Tell it to run only one mode, e.g., -only HPUX.


ENVIRONMENT

       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
	       to get the name of a resource file that	overrides  the	global
	       resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.


X RESOURCES

       Notable	X  resources  supported  include  the following, which control
       which hacks are displayed and which aren't.  doWindows, doNT,  doWin2K,
       doAmiga,  doMac,  doMac1,  doMacsBug,  doMacX,  doSCO,  doAtari, doBSD,
       doLinux, doSparcLinux, doHPPALinux,  doBlitDamage,  doSolaris,  doHPUX,
       doApple2,  doOS390, doTru64, doVMS, doMSDOS, doOS2, and doHVX.  Each of
       these is a Boolean resource, they  all  default	to  true,  except  for
       doAtari,  doBSD, doSparcLinux, and doHPPALinux, which are turned off by
       default, because they're really not all that interesting looking unless
       you're a fan of those systems.

       There  are  command-line options for all of these: e.g., -bsd, -no-bsd.
       (Also note the -only option.)


BUGS

       Unlike the systems being simulated, bsod  does  not  require  a	reboot
       after running.
