NAME
       xstdcmap - X standard colormap utility

SYNOPSIS
       xstdcmap [-all] [-best] [-blue] [-default] [-delete map]
                [-display display] [-gray] [-green] [-help] [-red]
                [-verbose]

DESCRIPTION
       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.

OPTIONS
       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 standard colormap property
               should be removed.  mapP may be one of: default, best, red,
               green, blue, or gray.

       -display display
               This option specifies the host and display to use; see X(1).

       -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.

ENVIRONMENT
       DISPLAY to get default host and display number.
