Human Perceivable Color Manager

Usage

catkin is a command-line program that reads a list of hexadecimal (or rgb) colors and smartly transforms their luminosity or saturation.

See colors.txt for data file example.

catkin -s 10 colors.txt # set HSLuv saturation to 10
catkin -l 10 colors.txt # set HSLuv luminosity to 10

catkin -saturation 10 colors.txt # set HSLuv saturation to 10
catkin -luminosity 10 colors.txt # set HSLuv luminosity to 10
