NAME

       Agave - colorscheme designer for the gnome desktop

SYNOPSIS

       agave [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Agave is a program for generating colorschemes from a starting color.  It currently supports five different colorscheme types:

	* Complements: The starting color and the color directly across the color wheel
	* Split Complements: the starting color and the two colors that are slightly
	  offset from the color directly across the color wheel
	* Triads: the starting color and the two colors 1/3 of the way around the wheel
	  in each direction.
	* Tetrads: The starting color and its complement plus another color slightly
	  offset from the starting color and _its_ complement
	* Analogous: The starting color and two colors slightly offset in hue
	* Monochromatic: The starting color and two other colors of the same hue, one
	  lighter, and one darker

       Using Agave

	* Choose a starting color by clicking on the color button or selecting a color
	  from the palette, and then select a scheme type from the combo box.  The
	  generated scheme will be displayed in the main window.
	* The left-most Color in the main window is the currently-selected color.  This
	  color can be added to your favorites list with the '+' button in the bottom
	  right, or with the keyboard shortcut 'Ctrl+D'.
	* To make one of the other colors in the scheme the currently-selected color, you
	  can double-click the colorswatch.
	* To copy a hexstring representation of the color (e.g. #FFFFFF) to the
	  clipboard, right-click the colorswatch and select the 'copy' menu
	  item.

NAME

       cmap - format of .cmap files (color maps)

DESCRIPTION

       Color-map  files  define  the mapping between eight-bit color numbers and red, green and blue intensities used for those numbers.  They are
       read by Magic as part of system startup, and also by the :load and :save commands in color-map windows.	Color-map file names usually  have
       the form x.y.z.cmapn, where x is a class of technology files, y is a class of displays, z is a class of monitors, and n is a version number
       (currently 1). The version number will change in the future if the formap of color-map files ever changes.  Normally, x and y correspond to
       the  corresponding parts of a display styles file.  For example, the color map file mos.7bit.std.cmap1 is used today for most nMOS and CMOS
       technology files using displays that support at least seven bits of color per pixel and standard-phosphor monitors.  It corresponds to  the
       display styles file mos.7bit.dstyle5.

       Color-map  files are stored in ASCII form, with each line containing four decimal integers separated by white space.  The first three inte-
       gers are red, green, and blue intensities, and the fourth field is a color number.  For current displays the intensities must  be  integers
       between	0 and 255.  The color numbers must increase from line to line, and the last line must have a color number of 255.  The red, green,
       and blue intensities on the first line are used for all colors from 0 up to and including the color number on that line.  For other  lines,
       the  intensities  on that line are used for all colors starting one color above the color number on the previous line and continuing up and
       through the color number on the current line.  For example, consider the color map below:

       255     0       0       2
       0       0       255     3
       255     255     255     256

       This color map indicates that colors 0, 1, and 2 are to be red, color 3 is to be blue, and all other colors are to be white.
