RGB(1)              UNIX Programmer's Manual               RGB(1)



NAME
     rgb - X Window System color database creator.

SYNOPSIS
     rgb [filename] [<input filename]

DESCRIPTION
     rgb creates a data base used by the X window system server
     for its colors. Stdin is used as its input and must be in
     the format of:

               0-255 0-255 0-255     colorname

     For example:

                 0     0     0     black

                 0   128     0     green

               255   255   255     white

     rgb stands for red-green-blue. Each element can have no
     intensity (0) to full intensity (255). How the elements are
     combined determines the actual color. The name given to the
     color can be descriptive or fanciful.

     In other words, the sequence:

                 0     0   128

     can be given the name 'blue' or 'unicorn blue'. There can
     also be two (or more) entries with the same element numbers
     or names.

ARGUMENTS
     filename  If filename is given, rgb produces two files;
               filename.dir and filename.pag. Otherwise the
               default filename is /usr/lib/X11/rgb.
