Feature Request: Incorporate customdisplayprofiles #20

Open jazzace opened 3 years ago

jazzace commented 3 years ago

It would be fantastic if you could incorporate Tim Sutton's customdisplayprofiles command line tool into display_manager, which would make this a complete solution for controlling colour-calibrated Macs (i.e. iMacs and other displays where you can't lock down the controls). Tim is no longer working in the job that led him to write his tool, so it will also need a new home under Python 3. Your tool seems to be the perfect complement to it, so it might be useful to include its functionality when you rewrite display_manager for Python 3 (see issue #19). Again, I can help test.

Hi @jazzace, I discussed this with our team and we will work on this as a low priority project. We will let you know when we are to the point to start testing, etc.

As an update, Tim has updated customdisplayprofiles for Python3 in the pyinstaller branch. I have also picked up some (minor) Python skills in the interim, so I may be able to contribute to development.
