              colors are available, try showrgb

              like the standard X-Windows geometry option.

       -d Device
              speicifies the device which should be used by ascd.

INVOCATION
       ascd can be called from one of many ways.  The most common
       invocation is the command line:

            [user@host] ~% ascd -n -l yellow&

       Another way to call ascd is from the window manager:

            *Wharf - - Swallow "ascd" ascd&

       This   line,   when   placed   in   the   wharf   file  in
       ~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep will cause  ascd  to  use  the
       shape  extensions so that it will be a button on the Wharf
       (1) button bar under the afterstep (1) window manager.
