DESCRIPTION
iteconfig
is used to modify or examine the attributes of
the console bell and bitmapped console display. The console bell's volume,
pitch, and count may be specified, as well as the bitmapped display's width,
height, horizontal and vertical offset, pixel depth, and color map.
The following flags are interpreted by
iteconfig
:
-i
- After processing all other arguments, print information about the console's state.
-f
- Open and use the terminal named by file rather than the default console /dev/ttye0.
-v
- Set the volume of the console bell to volume, which must be between 0 and 63, inclusive.
-p
- Set the pitch of the console bell to pitch, which must be between 10 and 1399.
-t
- Set the duration of the beep to msec milliseconds which must be between 1 and 5000 (5 seconds).
-w
- Set the width of the console display to width pixel columns. Width must be a positive integer.
-h
- Set the height of the console display to height pixel rows. Height must be a positive integer.
-d
- Set the number of bitplanes the console view should use to depth. For example, if depth is 3 then 8 colors will be used.
-x
- Set the horizontal offset of the console view on the monitor to offset pixel columns. The horizontal offset may be a positive or a negative integer, positive being an offset to the right, negative to the left.
-y
- Set the vertical offset of the console view on the monitor to offset pixel rows. The vertical offset may be a positive or a negative integer, positive being an offset down, negative up.
Any additional arguments will be interpreted as colors and will be used to supply the color values for the console view's color map, starting with the first entry in the map. (See the COLOR SPECIFICATION section of this manual page for information on how to specify colors.) If more colors are supplied than are usable by the console view, a warning is printed and the extra colors are ignored.
COLOR SPECIFICATION
Colors are hexadecimal numbers which have one of the following formats:
- 0xRRGGBB
- RR, GG, and
BB are taken to be eight-bit values specifying the
intensities of the red, green and blue components, respectively, of the
color to be used. For example,
0xff0000
is bright red,0xffffff
is white, and0x008080
is dark cyan. - 0xGG
- GG is taken to be an eight-bit value specifying the
intensity of grey to be used. A value of
0x00
is black, a value of0xff
is white, and a value of0x80
is a grey approximately half way in between. - 0xM
- M is taken to be the one-bit monochrome value to be
used. A value of
0x1
is black, and a value of0x0
is white.
BUGS
The iteconfig
command is only available on
the amiga and atari ports.
