    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

    <para>This manual page documents briefly the
      <command>&dhpackage;</command>  command.</para>

    <para><command>&dhpackage;</command>
is a small utility that displays all available visuals,
aka. pixelformats, in an OpenGL system along with renderer version
information. It shows a table of all the visuals that support OpenGL
 along with their capabilities. The format of the table is similar to
that of glxinfo on Unix systems:
