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.
