NAME
       cvt - calculate VESA CVT	mode lines

SYNOPSIS
       cvt [-v|--verbose] [-r|--reduced] h-resolution v-resolution [refresh]

DESCRIPTION
       Cvt  is	a utility for calculating VESA Coordinated Video Timing	modes.
       Given the desired horizontal and	vertical resolutions, a	 modeline  ad-
       hering to the CVT standard is printed. This modeline can	be included in
       Xorg xorg.conf(5)

OPTIONS
       refresh Provide	a  vertical  refresh  rate  in	Hz.   The CVT standard
	       prefers either 50.0, 60.0, 75.0	or  85.0Hz.   The  default  is
	       60.0Hz.

       -v|--verbose
	       Warn verbosely when a given mode	does not completely correspond
	       with CVT	standards.

       -r|--reduced
	       Create  a  mode	with reduced blanking.	This allows for	higher
	       frequency signals, with a lower	or  equal  dotclock.  Not  for
	       Cathode Ray Tube	based displays though.
