+.B \-sync
+This option tells \fBnxagent\fR to synchronize its window and graphics
+operations with the real server. This is a useful option for
+debugging, but it will slow down \fBnxagent\fR's performance
+considerably. It should not be used unless absolutely necessary.
+.TP 8
+.B \-full
+This option tells \fBnxagent\fR to utilize full regeneration of real
+server objects and reopen a new connection to the real server each
+time \fBnxagent\fR regenerates. The sample server implementation
+regenerates all objects in the server when the last client of this
+server terminates. When this happens, \fBnxagent\fR by default
+maintains the same top-level window and the same real server
+connection in each new generation. If the user selects full
+regeneration, even the top-level window and the connection to the real
+server will be regenerated for each server generation.
+.TP 8
+.B \-class \fIstring\fP
+This option specifies the default visual class of the nested server.
+It is similar to the
+.B \-cc
+option from the set of standard options except that it will accept a string
+rather than a number for the visual class specification.
+The
+.I string
+must be one of the following six values:
+.BR StaticGray ,
+.BR GrayScale ,
+.BR StaticColor ,
+.BR PseudoColor ,
+.BR TrueColor ,
+or
+.BR DirectColor .
+If both the
+.B \-class
+and
+.B \-cc
+options are specified, the last instance of either option takes precedence.
+The class of the default visual of the nested server need not be the same as the
+class of the default visual of the real server, but it must be supported by the
+real server.
+Use
+.BR xdpyinfo (__appmansuffix__)
+to obtain a list of supported visual classes on the real server before
+starting \fBnxagent\fR. If the user chooses a static class, all the
+colors in the default color map will be preallocated. If the user
+chooses a dynamic class, colors in the default color map will be
+available to individual clients for allocation.

+.B \-depth \fIint\fP
+This option specifies the default visual depth of the nested server.
+The depth of the default visual of the nested server need not be the
+same as the depth of the default visual of the real server, but it

+.B \-geometry \fIW\fBx\fIH\fB+\fIX\fB+\fIY\fP
+This option specifies the geometry parameters for the top-level
+\fBnxagent\fR window. See \(lqGEOMETRY SPECIFICATIONS\(rq in
+.BR X (__miscmansuffix__)
+for a discusson of this option's syntax. This window corresponds to
+the root window of the nested server. The width
+.I W
+and height
+.I H
+specified with this option will be the maximum width and height of
+each top-level \fBnxagent\fR window. \fBnxagent\fR will allow the
+user to make any top-level window smaller, but it will not actually
+change the size of the nested server root window. If this option is
+not specified, \fBnxagent\fR will choose
+.I W
+and
+.I H
+to be 3/4ths the dimensions of the root window of the real server.

+is not specified \fBnxagent\fR will assume 96. There's also
+.B \-autodpi
+which will clone the real server's dpi. Note that the resolution specified via
+.B \-dpi
