.SH "NAME"
SDL_SetGammaRamp \- Sets the color gamma lookup tables for the display
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_SetGammaRamp\fP\fR(\fBUint16 *redtable, Uint16 *greentable, Uint16 *bluetable\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Sets the gamma lookup tables for the display for each color component\&. Each table is an array of 256 Uint16 values, representing a mapping between the input and output for that channel\&. The input is the index into the array, and the output is the 16-bit gamma value at that index, scaled to the output color precision\&. You may pass NULL to any of the channels to leave them unchanged\&.
.PP
This function adjusts the gamma based on lookup tables, you can also have the gamma calculated based on a "gamma function" parameter with \fISDL_SetGamma\fR\&.
.PP
Not all display hardware is able to change gamma\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
Returns -1 on error (or if gamma adjustment is not supported)\&.
.SH "SEE ALSO"

Searching the installed man pages for SDL functions fails, e.g. man -k SDL_ |grep Video After investigating this I found that "makewhatis", the tool that generates the "whatis" database, reads the SDL_* man pages, but doesn't produce entries in the "whatis" database for the SDL_* man pages. After some more debugging I found the reason is a missing space. After editing SDL_Init.3(.gz) and replacing SDL_Init\- Initializes SDL with SDL_Init \- Initializes SDL everything works fine. After running "makewhatis" I can successfully do a man -k SDL_ and SDL_Init is listed in the output. --HG-- branch : SDL-1.2 extra : convert_revision : svn%3Ac70aab31-4412-0410-b14c-859654838e24/branches/SDL-1.2%402660
