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 facili-tate facilitate
       tate sharing of scarce colormap resources among clients.  Where at all possible, colormaps  are  cre-ated created
       ated 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 specific standard colormap property, 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(7).

       -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.
