NAME
       rgb - build the color name database

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/rgb [ dbname ]

DESCRIPTION
       rgb reads from standard input lines of the form:

	    red	 green	blue	  name

       where red / green / blue are decimal values between the range 0 to 255,
       and name is a description of the color.	rgb then builds a  color  name
       database	 in  ndbm  format.  The color name database provides a mapping
       between ASCII color names and RGB  color	 values.   It  is  useful  for
       increasing the portability of color programs.  The input source for the
       database is in /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt.  rgb.txt is compiled into the ndbm
       files  rgb.dir  rgb.pag.	  When the server first starts up, it consults
       the contents of these files to  build  an  internal  representation  of
       their contents.	This internal representation is consulted to map color
       names to color values.

       rgb uses the default color name database of /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt.

OPTIONS
       dbname	 Color name database.

EXAMPLES
       example% rgb rgb < /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt

       example% cat /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt

FILES
       /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt	     color name database source.   Maps	 color
				     names to RGB color values.
       /usr/lib/X11/rgb.dir rgb.pag  ndbm  files  containing color name to RGB
				     mapping.
