<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
<I>xcmsdb</I>
|
|
|
|
is used to load, query, or remove Device Color Characterization data
|
|
stored in properties on the root window of the screen as specified
|
|
in section 7, Device Color Characterization, of the ICCCM.
|
|
Device Color Characterization data (also called the Device Profile)
|
|
is an integral part of Xlib's X Color Management System (Xcms), necessary
|
|
for proper conversion of color specification between device-independent
|
|
and device-dependent forms.
|
|
Xcms uses 3x3 matrices stored in the XDCCC_LINEAR_RGB_MATRICES property to
|
|
convert color specifications between CIEXYZ and RGB Intensity (XcmsRGBi, also
|
|
referred to as linear RGB).
|
|
Xcms then uses display gamma information stored in the
|
|
XDCCC_LINEAR_RGB_CORRECTION property to convert color specifications between
|
|
RGBi and RGB device (XcmsRGB, also referred to as device RGB).
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
Note that Xcms allows clients to register <I>function sets</I>
|
|
in addition to its
|
|
built-in function set for CRT color monitors. Additional function sets
|
|
may store their device profile information in other properties in function
|
|
set specific format.
|
|
This utility is unaware of these non-standard properties.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The ASCII readable contents of
|
|
<I>filename</I>
|
|
|
|
(or the standard input if no input file is given)
|
|
are appropriately transformed for storage in properties, provided the
|
|
<B>-query</B>
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
<B>-remove</B>
|
|
|
|
options are not specified.

|
|
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
|
|
|
|
<I>xcmsdb</I>
|
|
|
|
program accepts the following options:
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="1"><B>-query</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
This option attempts to read the XDCCC properties off the screen's root
|
|
window.
|
|
If successful, it transforms the data into a more readable format, then
|
|
sends the data to standard out.
|
|
<DT id="2"><B>-remove</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
This option attempts to remove the XDCCC properties on the screen's root
|
|
window.
|
|
<DT id="3"><B>-format 32</B>|<B>16</B>|<B>8</B><DD>
|
|
Specifies the property format (32, 16, or 8 bits per entry) for the
|
|
XDCCC_LINEAR_RGB_CORRECTION property.
|
|
Precision of encoded floating point values increases with the increase
|
|
in bits per entry.
|
|
The default is 32 bits per entry.
|
|
<DT id="4"><B>-help</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
This option prints a summary of the available options and exits.
|
|
<DT id="5"><B>-version</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
This option prints the program version and exits.
