After a few minutes, though, a fly starts flying over the screen, perhaps even lands on the desktop and eats a pixel. Without docs you can only watch it helplessly, but.... there is a possibility to kill this fly. (try the right mouse button) Though this program is not that useful, it's lot of fun to hunt the fly, because the damn beast reacts on mouse moves and gets more and more nervous.
