It does the following +tasks: + + * Enumerates displays and register them in colord; + * Creates default ICC profiles based on EDID data; + * Applies ICC profiles provided by colord; + * Maintains user's private ICC storage directory. + +It does basically the same as gnome-settings-daemon color plugin or +colord-kde but does not depend on any particular desktop. It even +doesn't depend on GTK so it doesn't create useless GTK3 dependency if +the desktop environment is GTK2-based or vice versa. The primary goal of +xiccd is providing color profile support for desktop environments other +than Gnome and KDE (Xfce, LXDE and probably others) that do not support +native color management yet. It is however not meant to be excuse of not +adding native color management to the session daemons of them. + +xiccd is distributed under the terms of GNU General Public License +version 3 or later. |
