Additional function sets +may store their device profile information in other properties in function +set specific format. +This utility is unaware of these non-standard properties. +.LP +The ASCII readable contents of +.I filename +(or the standard input if no input file is given) +are appropriately transformed for storage in properties, provided the +.B \-query +or +.B \-remove +options are not specified. +.SH "OPTIONS" +.I xcmsdb +program accepts the following options: +.TP 8 +.B \-query +This option attempts to read the XDCCC properties off the screen's root +window. +If successful, it transforms the data into a more readable format, then +sends the data to standard out. +.TP 8 +.B \-remove +This option attempts to remove the XDCCC properties on the screen's root +window. +.TP 8 +\fB\-format\032\fP|\fB16\fP|\fB8\fP +Specifies the property format (32, 16, or 8 bits per entry) for the +XDCCC_LINEAR_RGB_CORRECTION property. +Precision of encoded floating point values increases with the increase +in bits per entry. +The default is 32 bits per entry. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +xprop(__appmansuffix__), Xlib documentation +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.TP 8 +.B DISPLAY +to figure out which display and screen to use. +.SH AUTHOR +Chuck Adams, Tektronix Inc. +Al Tabayoyon, SynChromatics Inc.
