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 stan-
     dard colormap properties.  It is intended to be run from a
     user's X startup script to create standard colormap defini-
     tions 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 mean-
             ingful.  xstdcmap will determine the best alloca-
             tions 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 pro-
             perty 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.
