Bug#396824: 'ttv --help' typos and incorrect grammar.
Package: ttv
Version: 3.95-6
Severity: minor
Plenty of typos:
ttv --help | tail -n 6
The default parameters are set to fit my monitor (15" goldstar)
With contrast set to maximum and bright set to make black black
This values depends at quality of your monitor (and setting of controls
Defaultd settings should be OK for most PC monitors. But ideal monitor
Needs dimmul=1.71 boldmul=1.43. For example monitor used by SGI is very
close to this values. Also old 14" vga monitors needs higher values.
Suggested revision:
The default parameters are based on my 15" Goldstar monitor,
with contrast set to maximum, and bright set to make black black.
These values depend on your particular monitor and how its controls are set.
Default settings should be OK for most PC monitors, but an ideal monitor
needs dimmul=1.71 boldmul=1.43; SGI monitors, for example, are very
close to these values. Old 14" VGA monitors need higher values.
Hope this helps...
