This option allows you to specify the server to
connect to; see _X(_1).
----mmmmoooottttiiiiffff Enable Motif color matching. When a colormap cell
is modified, its corresponding top and bottom shadow
colormap cells (if any) are also modified. This is
on by default.
----nnnnooooMMMMoooottttiiiiffff
Disable Motif color matching.

_P_i_x_e_d_i_t makes temporary changes to the installed colormap,
allowing the user to observe the effects. It's useful for
trying to pick that perfect color or find the appropriate
color combination for an application.
When pixedit first starts, the cursor changes to a
crosshair. Click on the screen pixel whose color and whose
colormap you wish to edit. Then, in the upper right there
will be a box containing the current color along with a
label showing the current RGB values in X11 hex format.
To adjust the current color you can use one of the nine
sliders, each controlling one of the RGB, HSV, or CMY values
for the current color. Or you can click on a cell displayed
in the palette to use its color. The palette button
underneath the hex label switches between the three
palettes: range, narrow, and wide. You can also click on
the hex label to directly enter new RGB hex values.
If you click on the "match" button, the palette will change
to the colors in the file /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt which are
closest to the current color. As you select these colors,
their names appear below the bottom buttons. Use the
palette button to return the palette to an ordinary
selection.
The "select" button allows you to choose another cell to
edit, the "cancel" button restores the current color to its
original value, the "restore" button restores all the cells
of the colormap to their original value, and the "quit"
button exits out of pixedit.

Motif color matching uses a heuristic to find the top and
shadow color pixels. There may be conflicts with unrelated
colors, or there may be other cells with the same RGB value.
