-BUGS
-====
-
-There isn't much error-checking for the numeric arguments. Anything
-non-numeric will be read as zero. If you include a decimal point,
-that should be an error, but instead it's silently ignored (the value
-is truncated).
-
-Maybe it should background (daemonize) itself. However, it works
-fine with & to background it, and this is pretty common practice for
-starting X software from ~/.xinitrc.
