 Name

    showrgb - color database previewer

 Syntax


    showrgb [database_name]


 Description

    showrgb displays a list of the colors that are compiled in the color
    database, including the three color values that comprise each color.

    If databasename is specified, showrgb examines the color database files,
    databasename.dir and databasename.pag and displays a list of colors
    available to the X server through this color database.  For details on
    using alternative databases, see rgb(X).

    If databasename is omitted, showrgb examines the default database,
    /usr/lib/X11/rgb and displays a color list that it builds from
    /usr/lib/X11/rgb.dir and /usr/lib/X11/rgb.pag.
