@chapter Overview
@command{libgamma} is a C library that aims to
abstract away the display server when adjusting
the colours curves for monitors via gamma ramps,
and to be cross-platform.
@command{libgamma} have support for the X RandR
(Resize and Rotate) extension, the X VidMode
extension and under Linux the Direct Rendering
Manager which lets software work with graphics
outside of graphical environments. Additionally
@command{libgamma} have support for Windows
Graphics Device Interface (Windows GDI) under
Linux and Quartz using CoreGraphics under OS X.
However Windows GDI and Quartz/CoreGraphics do
not receive first-party testing on their target
platforms but do receive first-party testing
using a compatibility layer that translates
the calls to RandR calls.
Furthermore @command{libgamma} provides a dummy
method that can be used to ignore adjustments
and can be controlled from a another program to
pretend like the environment has changed. This
can be used test how well your software handles
such events. It can also be configured at runtime
to use another adjustment method such as RandR.
