All macros +and symbolic constants in this header are suitable for use in +.B #if +preprocessing directives. +.PP +This header defines the follow symbolic constants: +.TP +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_APPARENT_RADIUS +The approximate apparent size of the Sun in degrees. This +value should be about 0.5(3). +.TP +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_SUNSET_SUNRISE +The Sun's elevation at sunset and sunrise, measured in degrees. +This value will always be 0.0. +.TP +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_CIVIL_DUSK_DAWN +The Sun's elevation at civil dusk and civil dawn, measured in +degrees. This value will always be -6.0. +.TP +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_NAUTICAL_DUSK_DAWN +The Sun's elevation at nautical dusk and nautical dawn, measured +in degrees. This value will always be -12.0. +.TP +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_ASTRONOMICAL_DUSK_DAWN +The Sun's elevation at astronomical dusk and astronomical dawn, +measured in degrees. This value will always be -18.0. +.TP +.B LIBRED_HIGHEST_TEMPERATURE +The highest temperature, in kelvins, for which there is a colour +temperature in the table of colour temperature. Any temperature +above this is automatically truncated by +.BR libred_get_colour (3), +as higher values shall be unnoticeable. Currently, this value +is 40\ 000. +.TP +.B LIBRED_LOWEST_TEMPERATURE +The lowest temperature, in kelvins, for which there is a colour +temperature in the table of colour temperature. Any temperature +below this results in +.BR libred_get_colour (3) +failing and setting +.B errno +to +.BR EDOM . +Currently this value 1000, hypothetical changes will be very small. +.TP +.B LIBRED_DELTA_TEMPERATURE +The temperatures differences between sequential colour temperatures +in the colour temperatures look up table. Currently this value is 100. +.PP +This header defines the follow macros: +.TP +.BR LIBRED_IS_TWILIGHT "(const double)" +Evaluates to 1 if the given expression is between -18.0 and 0.0 (this is, +between +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_ASTRONOMICAL_DUSK_DAWN +and +.BR LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_SUNSET_SUNRISE ), +inclusively, other wise, this macro evaluates to 0. The input should be the +Sun's apparent elevation, and the macro evaluates to 1 if it is currently +twilight. The given expression is evaluted either once or twice, therefore, +it must not have side-effects. +.TP +.BR LIBRED_IS_CIVIL_TWILIGHT "(const double)" +Evaluates to 1 if the given expression is between -6.0 and 0.0 (this is, +between +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_CIVIL_DUSK_DAWN +and +.BR LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_SUNSET_SUNRISE ), +inclusively, other wise, this macro evaluates to 0. The input should be the +Sun's apparent elevation, and the macro evaluates to 1 if it is currently +civil twilight.

The input should be the +Sun's apparent elevation, and the macro evaluates to 1 if it is currently +nautical twilight. The given expression is evaluted either once or twice, +therefore, it must not have side-effects. +.TP +.BR LIBRED_IS_ASTRONOMICAL_TWILIGHT "(const double)" +Evaluates to 1 if the given expression is between -18.0 and -12.0 (this is, +between +.B LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_ASTRONOMICAL_DUSK_DAWN +and +.BR LIBRED_SOLAR_ELEVATION_NAUTICAL_DUSK_DAWN ), +inclusively, other wise, this macro evaluates to 0. The input should be the +Sun's apparent elevation, and the macro evaluates to 1 if it is currently +astronomical twilight. The given expression is evaluted either once or twice, +therefore, it must not have side-effects. +.PP +Note that the intervals are closed, and hence their boundaries overlap. +This is intentional. If it is not twilight it is either daytime or night. +It is night only if the Sun's apparent elevation is negative. +.PP +This header defines the following functions: +.TP +* +.BR libred_solar_elevation (3) +.TP +* +.BR libred_check_timetravel (3) +.TP +* +.BR libred_init_colour (3) +.TP +* +.BR libred_term_colour (3) +.TP +* +.BR libred_get_colour (3) +.PP +This header may define +.B extern int libred_fd +iff it does it also defines the macro +.BR LIBRED_HAVE_FD . +If it does, you want to keep this file descriptor open when you daemonise +your process. It is set by +.BR libred_init_colour (3) +and unset by +.BR libred_term_colour (3). +It value is negative (more precisely it is -1) if no file descriptor has +been opened. +.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS" +None. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR libred_solar_elevation (3), +.BR libred_check_timetravel (3), +.BR libred_init_colour (3), +.BR libred_term_colour (3), +.BR libred_get_colour (3) +.SH LICENSE +Copyright \(co 2016 Mattias Andrée +.br +License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>. +.br +This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. +.br +There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. +.PP +Copying and distribution of this manual, with or without modification, +are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright +notice and this notice are preserved.
