-Calibration utility for CRT monitors.
+NAME
+ crt-calibrator - CRT monitor calibrator utility for Linux VT
-Run the program in the TTY on Linux
-and it will help you calibrator your
-monitors.
+SYNOPSIS
+ crt-calibrator [FILE]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ crt-calibrator is an interactive tool that guides you through
+ calibrating your CRT monitors. When done, the program will
+ print colour ramps information that is useful when setting
+ the calibrations automatically. If FILE is specified, this
+ information is stored to that the file named FILE.
+
+ The program cannot be run from inside X, it is required that
+ it is run from the Linux VT, otherwise known as the TTY.
+
+NOTE
+ crt-calibrator should not be used to calibrate LCD (neither
+ LED or TFT), plasma monitors, or OLED. It should only be
+ used to calibrate monitors with nice gamma-curves, such as
+ CRT monitors. Not monitors with sigmoid-curves.
