+.TH LIBCOLOUR 7 libcolour
+.SH NAME
+libcolour - A C colour space library
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B libcolour
+is C library for colour space conversions.
+.B libcolour
+provides conversion between a large number of colour
+spaces, including many different RGB colour spaces.
+It also supports encode and non-encoded representations.
+libcolour futhermore provides access to custom RGB
+colour spaces.
+.P
+To use libcolour, include the header file
+.B <libcolour.h>
+and link with
+.B /usr/local/lib/libcolour.a -lm
+or
+.BR -lcolour .
+.SH COLOUR MODELS
+.B libcolour
+supports a number of colour models. A colour model
+is specified with a value of
+.nf
+
+ \fBtypedef enum libcolour_model libcolour_model_t;\fP
+
+.fi
+The colour models can listed using the macros
+.nf
+
+ \fBLIBCOLOUR_LIST_MODELS\fP(\fIMACRO\fP, \fITYPE_AFFIX\fP)
+
+.fi
+or
+.nf
+
+ \fBLIBCOLOUR_LIST_MODELS_N\fP(\fIMACRO\fP, \fITYPE_AFFIX\fP, ...)
+
+.fi
+where
+.I MACRO
+is the macro that shall be expanded, and
+.I TYPE_AFFIX
+shall be
+.BR f ,
+.BR lf ,
+or
+.BR llf
+for
+.BR float -typed,
+.BR double -typed,
+and
+.BR long\ double -typed
+colour module stuctures, respectively.
+.B LIBCOLOUR_LIST_MODELS
+expands
+.I MACRO
+with three parameters:
+.B enum libcolour_model
+value of the colour model,
+.BR typedef -name
+of
+.B struct
+used to store colours of the colour model,
+and the name of the member in
+.BR union\ libcolour_colour_f ,
+.BR union\ libcolour_colour_lf ,
+and
+.B union libcolour_colour_llf
+that is used to store a colour with the colour model.
+.B LIBCOLOUR_LIST_MODELS_N
+is identical to
+.B LIBCOLOUR_LIST_MODELS
+except allows the programmer to specify additional
+parameters to pass
+.I MACRO
+when it is expanded.
+.P
+There there are three
+.BR struct s
+defined for each colour model, the first member
+in each
+.B struct
+is
+.nf
+
+ \fBenum libcolour_model model;\fP
+
+.fi
+The three
+.BR struct s
+for each colour model are for different data types:
+.BR float ,
+.BR double ,
+and
+.BR long\ double .
+For example, for sRGB, the follow
+.BR struct s
+are defined:
+.nf
+
+ \fBtypedef struct libcolour_srgb_f libcolour_srgb_f_t;\fP
+ \fBtypedef struct libcolour_srgb_lf libcolour_srgb_lf_t;\fP
+ \fBtypedef struct libcolour_srgb_llf libcolour_srgb_llf_t;\fP
+
+.fi
+for
+.BR float ,
+.BR double ,
+and
+.BR long\ double ,
+respectively. Similarly,
+.nf
+
+ \fBtypedef union libcolour_colour_f libcolour_colour_f_t;\fP
+ \fBtypedef union libcolour_colour_lf libcolour_colour_lf_t;\fP
+ \fBtypedef union libcolour_colour_llf libcolour_colour_llf_t;\fP
+
+.fi
+are used for
+.BR float ,
+.BR double ,
+and
+.BR long\ double ,
+respectively, and all have the member
+.nf
+
+ \fBenum libcolour_model model;\fP
+
+.fi
+The
+.BR struct s
+are
+.I not
+padded to be of the same size.
+.P
+.B <libcolour.h>
+defines
+.BR struct s
+the following for colour models:

+.SH ILLUMINANTS
+.B libcolour
+provides a number of initialiser macros for standard
+illuminants. The following macros expand to a
+.B libcolour_ciexyy_f_t
+with the standard 2 degrees observer value in CIE
+xyY, each have a supplementary 10 degrees observer
+counterpart using suffix
+.BR _10DEG_OBS ,
+both with the Y value set to 1. Additionally, each
+macro, including the
+.B _10DEG_OBS
+variants, have a variant that uses the
+.B _LF
+affix that expands to a
+.B libcolour_ciexyy_lf_t
+and a variant that uses the
+.B _LLF
+affix that expands to a
+.B libcolour_ciexyy_llf_t
+in addition to the listed variants that uses
+the
+.B _F
+affix.
