-.TH CRT-CALIBRATOR 1 CRT-CALIBRATOR
-.SH NAME
-crt-calibrator - CRT monitor calibrator utility for Linux VT
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.BR crt-calibrator
-.RI [ FILE ]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.B crt-calibrator
-is an interactive tool that guides you through calibrating your
-CRT monitors. When done, the program will print gamma-ramp
-information that is useful when setting the calibrations
-automatically. If
-.B FILE
-is specified, this information is stored to that the file named
-.BR FILE .
-.PP
-The program cannot be run from inside
-.BR X ,
-it is required that it is run from the
-.BR Linux\ VT ,
-otherwise known as the TTY.
-.SH NOTES
-.B 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.
-.SH RATIONALE
-Few users have calibration hardware, and CRT monitors can be
-sufficiently calibrated manually without them. However, before
-.B crt-calibrator
-the best way to calibrator CRT monitors was to have specialised
-test images, with colour bars and samples. But this requires
-expertise, the common user will know how to contruct these
-images or the best procedure for applying the corrections. And
-it is tedious if you do not find any interactive tool for change
-changing the settings. The alternative why was to use test
-pictures that relied on you deciding what looked most realistic
-rather than the image itself telling you. But that's not all,
-to my knowledge, this is actually the first program that runs
-outside a display server.
