21 darktable is a digital photography workflow application for Linux and
22 Mac OS X in the lines of Adobe Lightroom and Apple Aperture.
23 The application is designed to ease editing and consistent processing
25 of large photo sessions and provides a easy to use digital light-table
26 and a set of sophisticated postprocessing tools.
27 Most processing is done in 32-bit floating point per channel mode in
29 device independent CIE L*a*b* color space. darktable is also fully
30 color managed, which gives you full control over the look of the
31 photos.
32 The application relies on a modern plug-in architecture thus making it
34 easy for 3rd party developers to extend the existing capabilities of
35 the application. All light-table and darkroom features are implemented
36 as plug-ins, so you can create your plug-ins reusing existing code.
37
39 IMG_1234.CR2 or /path/to/load/
40 Loads the given image in darkroom mode, or imports the given
41 folder.
42 -d control
44 Enable job queue debugging. If you redirect darktables output to
45 control.log and call ./tools/create_control_svg.sh control.log, you
46 will get a nice control.svg with a visualization of the threads'
47 work.
48 -d cache
50 This will give you a lot of debugging info about the mipmap cache
51 for light table mode. If compiled in debug mode, this will also
52 tell you where in the code a certain buffer has last been locked.
53 -d perf
55 Use this for performance tweaking your darkroom modules. It will
56 rdtsc-measure the runtimes of all plugins and print them to stdout.
57 -d all
59 Enable all debugging output.
60 --library override.db
62 Uses override.db instead of the gconf/darktablerc specified library
63 file. Should be an absolute path.
64 --disable-opencl
66 For opencl builds only. Disables GPU computing at runtime. Useful
67 to check for bugs in our opencl code and to avoid buggy drivers on
68 certain machines.
69 -t num_threads
71 For openmp builds only. Overrides the default number of threads (=
72 number of cores).

136 darktable-faster first copies the library to ram and then starts dt. On
137 close, it is copied back, so even in case of crashes no data loss is
138 anticipated.

140 collection in full screen as a slideshow.

173 The project was started by Johannes Hanika in early 2009 to fill the
174 gap (or, rather, a black hole) of a digital photography workflow tool
175 on Linux.
