<P>There are some functions with internal <CODE>require</CODE> calls
to delay loading modules until they are needed.  While this reduces
startup latency for interpreters, it can produce headaches for
compilers.

<P>Although it will
work on large info files, feeding it an excerpt is much faster; and
has less chance of being confused by unusual text in the info file.
This command excerpts the SLIB index into `<TT>slib-index.info</TT>':
<P>

<TABLE><tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td class=example><pre>info -f slib2d6.info -n &quot;Index&quot; -o slib-index.info

<P>How do I know this?
I parsed 250kbyte of random input (an e-mail file) with a non-trivial
grammar utilizing all constructs.

<P>Readers may recognize these color string formats from Xlib.
X11's color management system was doomed by its fiction that CRT
monitors' (and X11 default) color-spaces were linear RGBi.  Unable to
shed this legacy, the only practical way to view pictures on X is to
ignore its color management system and use an sRGB monitor.  In this
implementation the device-independent RGB709 and sRGB spaces replace the
device-dependent RGBi and RGB spaces of Xlib.

<P>
A comprehensive encoding of transforms between CIEXYZ and device color
spaces is the International Color Consortium profile format,
ICC.1:1998-09:
<P>

<BLOCKQUOTE>
The intent of this format is to provide a cross-platform device profile
format.  Such device profiles can be used to translate color data
created on one device into another device's native color space.

<P>If you are porting a
<CITE>Revised^3 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme</CITE>
implementation, then you will need to finish writing `<TT>sc4sc3.scm</TT>'
and <CODE>load</CODE> it from your initialization file.
