xstdcmap - X standard colormap utility
xstdcmap [-all] [-best] [-blue] [-default] [-delete
map] [-display
dpy] [-gray] [-green] [-help] [-red] [-verbose] [-version]
The
xstdcmap utility can be used to selectively define standard colormap
properties. It is intended to be run from a user's X startup script to create
standard colormap definitions in order to facilitate sharing of scarce
colormap resources among clients. Where at all possible, colormaps are created
with read-only allocations.
The following options may be used with
xstdcmap:
- -all
- This option indicates that all six standard colormap
properties should be defined on each screen of the display. Not all
screens will support visuals under which all six standard colormap
properties are meaningful. xstdcmap will determine the best
allocations and visuals for the colormap properties of a screen. Any
previously existing standard colormap properties will be replaced.
- -best
- This option indicates that the RGB_BEST_MAP should be
defined.
- -blue
- This option indicates that the RGB_BLUE_MAP should be
defined.
- -default
- This option indicates that the RGB_DEFAULT_MAP should be
defined.
- -delete map
- This option specifies that a specific standard colormap
property, or all such properties, should be removed. map may be one
of: default, best, red, green, blue, gray, or all.
- -display dpy
- This option specifies the host and display to use; see
X(7).
- -gray
- This option indicates that the RGB_GRAY_MAP should be
defined.
- -green
- This option indicates that the RGB_GREEN_MAP should be
defined.
- -help
- This option indicates that a brief description of the
command line arguments should be printed on the standard error. This will
be done whenever an unhandled argument is given to xstdcmap.
- -red
- This option indicates that the RGB_RED_MAP should be
defined.
- -verbose
- This option indicates that xstdcmap should print
logging information as it parses its input and defines the standard
colormap properties.
- -version
- This option indicates that xstdcmap should print its
version and exit.
- DISPLAY
- to get default host and display number.
