@command{libcolour} is used by including
the header @file{<libcolour.h>} and by linking
with @option{-lcolour}.

a large number of colour spaces, including many
different RGB colour spaces. It also supports
encode and non-encoded representations.
@command{libcolour} futhermore provides access
to custom RGB colour spaces and custom arbitrary
additive and subtractive colour spaces, with
any number of primaries, as long as their
conversion to CIE XYZ is linear.
