As far as I know, Xeyes has "always" been part of GUI oriented Linux installs, and despite using it for mouse testing from time to time for over 25 years at this point, I never read the manpage. Well, my daughter, aged five, likes to play with xeyes and I decided to check the manpage if there was something I could do to change it up a little. Well, there is.

"WTF does this switch do?" *tests* "lol, of course that's what it does..."

Note: The switch is case sensitive. I have version 1.3.0 here, not sure when this option was added.

EDIT: Lemmy won't let me embed .mp4 inline, so I edited this post into a link. I also posted it here for those with cache issues.
