pastel-to-gray(1)
okay bestie, welcome to the pastel-to-gray(1) manual page π This is the pastel-to-gray command from the General Commands Manual, and it's literally here to completely desaturate a color while preserving luminance. No cap.
β¨ NAME β¨
pastel-to-gray β Completely desaturate a color (preserving luminance). That's the whole vibe: take a color, strip the saturation, keep the luminance. Periodt.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
pastel to-gray [-h|--help] [color]
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
Completely desaturate the given color while preserving the luminance. That's the main character energy here. It takes your color and removes all the saturation, but the luminance stays intact. Obsessed.
For a definition of 'luminance', see:
https://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-WCAG20-20081211/#relativeluminancedef
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
-h,--helpβ Print help (see a summary with'-h')[color]β Colors can be specified in many different formats, such as#RRGGBB,RRGGBB,#RGB,'rgb(β¦, β¦, β¦)','hsl(β¦, β¦, β¦)','gray(β¦)'or simply by the name of the color. The identifier-can be used to read a single color from standard input. Also, the special identifierpickcan be used to run an external color picker to choose a color. If no color argument is specified, colors will be read from standard input. Examples (all of these specify the same color):lightslategray'#778899'778899789'rgb(119, 136, 153)''119,136,153''hsl(210, 14.3%, 53.3%)'Alpha transparency is also supported:'#77889980''rgba(119, 136, 153, 0.5)''hsla(210, 14.3%, 53.3%, 50%)'
And that's the whole page, bestie π
This manual came from the to-gray source and it's the pastel-to-gray(1) manual. The footer didn't give us a date, but the vibe is timeless anyway. Stay desaturated, stay luminous, fr fr. π¦β¨
