.SH DESCRIPTION |
| 14 |
.I Pextrem |
| 15 |
locates the minimum and maximum values for the input |
| 16 |
.I picture, |
| 17 |
and prints their pixel locations and color values. |
| 18 |
The first line printed contains the x and y pixel location |
| 19 |
(x measured from the left margin, y measured from the bottom), |
| 20 |
followed by the red, green and blue values. |
| 21 |
The second line printed contains the same information for the |
| 22 |
maximum value. |
| 23 |
.PP |
| 24 |
The |
| 25 |
.I \-o |
| 26 |
option prints the original (radiance) values, undoing any exposure |
| 27 |
or color correction done on the picture. |
| 28 |
If the input is XYZE, then the second channel is in candelas/meter^2, |
| 29 |
unless |
| 30 |
.I \-O |
| 31 |
is specified, when watts/sr/meter^2 are always reported. |
| 32 |
.PP |
| 33 |
If no input |
| 34 |
.I picture |
| 35 |
is given, the standard input is read. |

.SH BUGS |
| 39 |
The luminance value is used for comparison of pixels, although in |
| 40 |
certain anomolous cases (ie. highly saturated colors) it is possible that |
| 41 |
.I pextrem |
| 42 |
will not pick the absolute minimum or maximum luminance value. |
| 43 |
This is because a fast integer-space comparison is used. |
| 44 |
A more reliable floating-point comparison would be slower by |
| 45 |
an order of magnitude. |
