NAME
       visualinfo -- displays GL extension and visual info

SYNOPSIS
       visualinfo [-display display] [-visual id]

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents briefly the visualinfo  command.

       visualinfo  is  a  small  utility  that	displays all available visuals, aka. pixelformats, in an OpenGL system along with renderer version
       information. It shows a table of all the visuals that support OpenGL along with their capabilities. The format of the table is  similar	to
       that of glxinfo on Unix systems:

       visual	 ~= pixel format descriptor

       id	 = visual id (integer from 1 - max visuals)

       tp	 = type (wn: window, pb: pbuffer, wp: window & pbuffer, bm: bitmap)

       ac	 = acceleration (ge: generic, fu: full, no: none)

       fm	 = format (i: integer, f: float, c: color index)

       db	 = double buffer (y = yes)

       dw	 = swap method (x: exchange, c: copy, u: undefined)

       st	 = stereo (y = yes)

       sz	 = total # bits

       r	 = # bits of red

       g	 = # bits of green

       b	 = # bits of blue

       a	 = # bits of alpha

       axbf	 = # aux buffers

       dpth	 = # bits of depth

       stcl	 = # bits of stencil
