Martin! It's almost exactly what I do at last 2 days! :)
I do:
iccgamut -pj -dpp -lx profile.icc
Mention must be note, that I use ArgyllCMS linearization and apply the
calibration to the profile (applycal). Such way the iccgamut can account the
limit exactly as it do colprof/collink. I'm plotting a dependency graph of
gamut from limit value.
Best regards,
Nikolay.
