- channel
Refers to a red, green, or blue intensity. See RGB values.
- color lookup table
A color map that establishes the relationship between pixel
values and visible screen colors. A pixel value is an index into this table
to arrive at an RGB value defining a displayable color.
- colorimeter
A hardware device used to measure luminance values for calibrating
a monitor.
- depth
The number of planes (the number of bits per pixel value)
for a window.
- display
A set of one or more screens driven by an X Window System
server. The Display structure contains all the information
about a particular display and its screens. It is filled when a program calls
an X library routine to connect to a windowing system. Also see screen.
- gamma correction
Changing RGB values to ensure that the appropriate color appears
on the screen.
- KCMS framework
The KCMS API library routines available with the Kodak Color
Management System portion of the Solaris 2.5 SDK that are used to manipulate
color profiles.
- OWconfig
A system configuration database file that maintains a list
of the dynamically loadable objects (modules).
- profile
A file that provides information to the KCMS framework on
how to convert input color data to the appropriate color-corrected output
color data. See KCMS framework.
- RGB values
Red, green, and blue intensity values used to define a color.
- screen
One or more screens can be associated with a single monitor,
keyboard, and pointing device. A Screen structure
is a member of a Display structure. See display.
- visual
A pixel-value translation into colors that are
displayed on the screen. X Window System visuals include PseudoColor, DirectColor,
GrayScale, StaticColor, TrueColor, and StaticGray.
