OCIOWRITE(1)

💖 OCIOWRITE — NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to OCIOWRITE(1), a lil User Commands manual page, and here's the whole point of it in one breath: ociowrite writes a color transformation to a file. that's it, that's the girl 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, ociowrite — she writes a color transformation to a file. no cap. that is literally her entire job and she does it gorgeously 🎀

here's how you summon her:

usage: ociowrite [options] --file outputfile

and here are all her lil flags, one by one, because we do not skip ✨

• --h — show the help and then dip. exits right after, she's got places to be 💅
• --v — spill some general information. just vibes, some info, and out.
• --colorspaces %s %s — hand over the input color space and the output color space. two values, both %s, give her both or she's confused 😭
• --displayview %s %s %s — hand over the input plus the (display, view) pair. that's three %s values total, and yes, the display and view go together as a pair 🫶
• --file %s — this is the transform file path, the main character of the whole operation 👑. the format is implied by the extension — meaning the extension you use tells her which format to write. the formats she can write to are:
  • ColorCorrection — .cc
  • ColorCorrectionCollection — .ccc
  • ColorDecisionList — .cdl
  • Academy/ASC Common LUT Format — .clf
  • Color Transform Format — .ctf

so like, quick vibe check: pick your extension with intention, because that extension is lowkey the whole format decision. no extension shenanigans, bestie 🙈

and that's the page!! thank you for coming to my ted talk 💖

mwah, this was the OCIOWRITE(1) manual page, source/version vibes dated August 2023, and the footer was just out here going "ociowrite -- write a color tra... August 2023" because even manpage footers get truncated sometimes 😭 slay, go write those color transformations ✨🦋🌸
