usually a greyscale: 0-255, however for 16 and 32bpp you

a value > 255 is treated as RGB (e.g. red is 0xff0000).
|

|
"linewidth" sets the width of the wireframe in pixels.
|

"percent" indicates to not apply the wireframe scheme

Since the \fB-wireframe\fR mechanism evidently tracks moving

viewers to locally copy the translated window region.

in, but helps on a slow link) Default: always
