NAME¶
colortest-python - Display color test chart and convert between color values
SYNOPSIS¶
colortest-python
DESCRIPTION¶
Displays 256, 88 and 16 color tables depending on what the terminal supports.
Also provides for conversion between 256 and 88 color values.
The program automatically detects 8, 16, 88, 256 color capabilities (via
ncurses) and displays the appropriate color charts. Program can display the
colors as blocks or 2d cubes optionally with color values overlaid in int or
hex values, it can show the full rgb text string and show the display with a
vertical (default) or horizontal orientation.
In addition to the color charts it can also convert between 256 and 88 color
values. This can be useful when converting various terminals like between
urxvt and xterm-256.
The goal of this program was to provide the functionality of all the various
Perl and sh scripts in one place with some bells and whistles.
