              "-gl"  for L*a*b* curve Use "-gs" for sRGB curve Use "-g709" for
              REC 709 curve (should use -a as well!)  Use  "-g240"  for  SMPTE

       -P ho,vo,ss[,vs]
              Position  test  window and scale it ho,vi: 0.0 = left/top, 0.5 =
              center, 1.0 = right/bottom etc.  ss: 0.5 = half, 1.0  =  normal,
              2.0 = double etc.
