NAME
     ds_server_init - store a  property  in  the  X11  server  to
     reduce colormap flashing within the DeskSet applications

SYNOPSIS
     ds_server_init [ -f filename ] [ -a ]

AVAILABILITY
     Available with the OpenWindows environment.

DESCRIPTION
     ds_server_init is a utility which stores a property  on  the
     server  representing  the  set of colors to be designated as
     the DeskSet colors.  This utility reduces colormap  flashing
     within applications requiring colors by restricting applica-
     tions to allocate colors only from the DeskSet  colors.   As
     an  application requires a color, a best fit color algorithm
     is performed upon the DeskSet colors to return  the  closest
     match from the DeskSet color list, thus avoiding to allocate
     duplicate colors that vary slightly.
     The property is stored as a character string under the  name
     _SUN_DESKSET_COLORS  where the property string consists of a
     series of color strings in the  hexadecimal  form  of  color
     specification.  The DeskSet colors are read in from the con-
     figurable                                               file
     $OPENWINHOME/share/xnews/client/ds_server_init/ds_colors.txt.
     If this file does not exist, ds_server_init will default  to
     a  set  of  its own back-up colors to store in the property.
     ds_server_init will allow up to 240 colors to be set on  the
     property.
     There are four additional colors (if they  exist)  that  are
     added to the DeskSet color list besides the colors specified
     in the color file.  These colors are stored  in  the  user's
     $HOME/.Xdefaults  file and are 1) Window.ForegroundColor, 2)
     Window.BackgroundColor, 3)  OpenWindows.WorkspaceColor,  and
     4) OpenWindows.WindowColor.
     Currently the only applications using this property are  the
     DeskSet  tools, but this concept can work on any application
     wishing to share colors with the tools.

INSTALLATION
     ds_server_init is invoked when the X11 server is started.

OPTIONS
     -f filename
          Indicates   the   filename   containing   the   colors.
          $OPENWINHOME/share/xnews/client/ds_server_init/ds_colors.txt
          is the default file.

     -a   This will force the allocation of the DeskSet colors at
          the   time  ds_server_init  is  invoked.   By  default,
          ds_server_init will allocate each color on an as-needed
          basis controlled from within the applications.

FILES
     $OPENWINHOME/share/xnews/client/ds_server_init/ds_colors.txt
               This file contains the set of  DeskSet  colors  in
               ASCII  where  the ds_server_init utility reads the
               colors from.

     $HOME/.Xdefaults

NOTES
     The OpenWindows environment may no longer be supported in  a
     future  release.  You may want to migrate to CDE, the Common
     Desktop Environment.
