Hi, all,My apologies, I am new to this mailing list and probably not following the right steps. I am switching from window to linux. I've noticed that the assorted icc profiles that I've accumulated over the last several years of digital photography in the world of windows all have copyright notices attached indicating the profiles belong to programs I'm not even using. I followed the archived exchange *Re: [Lcms-user] Create AdobeRGB profile from scratch *(http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=47FE8597.70601%40danbala.com) with great interest. The primaries, white, and gamma for kodak prophoto/ROMM are readily available. And I'd like to create two versions, one with gamma 1.8 and one with gamma 1.0.
I see from the "Created AdobeRGB profile" exchange that the appropriate "command" for lcms is "cmsCreateRGBProfile". But lcms is a library, not a program, per se (albeit with some great utilities like tifficc for profile conversions). I am familiar with the command line and with scripting in various languages from working with windows and dos and gwbasic and such. But I'm not a programmer and I don't know how to "call a library" - sounds like I'd need to be writing my own program.
I typed "cmsCreateRGBProfile", hoping an imagemagick- or exiftool-type "help" box would pop up. But all I got was "bash: cmsCreateRGBProfile: command not found", so clearly there's more to it than that. I've poked around the internet but didn't find anything that looked like I could make heads or tails out of the discussion. Is creating a non-copyright version of kodak prophoto/romm something a linux newbie working at the command line can do? Can someone point me in the right direction? Or perhaps there already a non-copyright version of prophotorgb and perhaps widegamutrgb available for download somewhere? I found an adobergb-compatible profile here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/openicc/2006q3/000775.html - but there was no hint as to how to actually create one's own profiles.
Thanks! Elle
