 osgVisual is build on top of !OpenSceneGraph. The core module is osgViewer which provides all the background technolog< to render the scene graph on the screen. You can use all osg and osgVisuer related command line options by adding these options to osgVisual.

 For all options which are not OSG but osgVisual related, the configuration mechanism is an XML configuration file. This file contains sections for each module to configure and for the scenery to display.

 === Module configuration ===
 
+The "module" sections are parsed while instantiation the modules at the beginning of steh startup process.
+Each module configuration contains at least the name and the enabled/disabled status of the module. Further module parameters are optional and module dependent.

+{{{
+#!xml
+  <module name="distortion" enabled="yes">
+    <distortion channelname="center"></distortion>
