NAME
xstdcmap - X standard colormap utility
SYNOPSIS
xstdcmap
[-all] [-best] [-blue] [-default] [-delete _m_a_p] [-display _d_i_s_p_l_a_y]
[-gray] [-green] [-help] [-red] [-verbose]
DESCRIPTION
The _x_s_t_d_c_m_a_p 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.
OPTIONS
The following options may be used with _x_s_t_d_c_m_a_p:
-
-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.
_x_s_t_d_c_m_a_p 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

-
-delete _m_a_p

This option specifies that a specific standard colormap property, or
all such properties, should be removed.
_m_a_p may be one of: default, best, red, green, blue, gray, or all.
-
-display _d_i_s_p_l_a_y
-
This option specifies the host and display to use; see _X_(_7_).

-
-green
-
This option indicates that the RGB_GREEN_MAP should be defined.

should be printed on the standard error. This will be done whenever an
unhandled argument is given to
xstdcmap.
