You can also modify the number of icons that xclus or xcxclus displays per row. By default,
the xclus or xcxclus utility attempts to display eight node icons per row. You can specify an
alternate value for the row width as follows:

If xclus or xcxclus cannot fit all the nodes in one screen without exceeding the screen height,
it increases the number of nodes per row, and overrides any configured row width value.
