NAME
       xstdcmap - X standard colormap utility

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

DESCRIPTION
       The xstdcmap utility can be used to selectively	define	standard  col‐
       ormap  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 pos‐
       sible, 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  col‐
	       ormap  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 specific standard colormap prop‐
	       erty, or all such properties, should be removed.	  map  may  be
	       one of: default, best, red, green, blue, gray, or all.

       -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 xstd‐
	       cmap.

       -red    This option indicates that the RGB_RED_MAP should be defined.

       -verbose
	       This option indicates that xstdcmap should print logging infor‐
	       mation as it parses its input and defines the standard colormap
	       properties.

ENVIRONMENT
       DISPLAY to get default host and display number.
