Given the +desired horizontal and vertical resolutions, a modeline adhering to the CVT +standard is printed. This modeline can be included in __xservername__ +.B __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) +. + +.SH OPTIONS +.TP 8 +.BR refresh +Provide a vertical refresh rate in kHz. The CVT standard prefers either 50.0, +60.0, 75.0 or 85.0kHz. The default is 60.0kHz. +.TP 8 +.BR \-v | \-\-verbose +Warn verbosely when a given mode does not completely correspond with CVT +standards. +.TP 8 +.BR \-r | \-\-reduced +Create a mode with reduced blanking. This allows for higher frequency signals, +with a lower or equal dotclock.
