================================================================================

This is a tool for parsing VESA Extended Display ID data (EDID) as sent by
most monitors. It eats binary EDID data and outputs a textual interpretation.
The reader is expected to have at least basic knowledge of the EDID specs.

Currently, we parse all versions up to EDID 1.4, including differences in
semantics between versions.

The following descriptors are known:

  0xff	Serial number		fully decoded
  0xfe	Comment			fully decoded
  0xfd	Range limits		fully decoded
  0xfc	Product name		fully decoded
  0xfb	Color points		not parsed
  0xfa	More standard timings	not parsed
  0xf9	Color management	not parsed
  0xf8	CVT-3			not parsed
  0xf7	Established timings 3	not parsed

The following extensions are known:

  0x02	CEA 861			fully decoded (including HDMI data)
  0x10	Video timing block	not parsed
  0x40	Display information	not parsed
  0x50	Localized strings	not parsed
  0x60	Digi. pkt. video link	not parsed
  0xf0	Block map		fully decoded

The main reason for not parsing a descriptor/extension is that I lack
any examples of such data. If you have a monitor which sends them, please
let me know.

The program has been tested on Linux, but it should run on an arbitrary POSIX
system with a C99 compiler.

All bug reports and suggestions are welcome, especially when accompanied by
patches :)

				Have fun
