Dear Gentlemen,

This is a small wrapper around Argyll for creating input (camera) and 
performing very simple checks on those.

Workflow:
set the reference CIED file
set the device data DevD file
set the quality
set the algorithm
set the white point mode
press "Go"
check Neutrality report
check deltaE2000 report

The wrapper expects a DevD file (device data, RGB, ColorChecker SG card, 2 
examples are in Work directory, the tool I used to make DevD files is 
RawDigger).

Some CIED files (including various colorcheckers) are placed into ReferenceData 
folder. Choose ColorCheckerSG_spectral.cie if you will be running sample files 
from Work folder.

You can use buttons to open CIED and DevD files, or drag them into respective 
fields.

If you will be running with gamma 1 file, 
NIKON_D4_Z100_4prof_NEF_g1_max227.txt, you can start with setting algorithm to 
matrix only.  For gamma 2.2 file, NIKON_D4_Z100_4prof_NEF_g22_max242.txt, a 
good start is gamma + matrix algorithm. You can try using auto scale white 
point and compare results.

Argyll utilities are in Argyll_bin. They are current, and you can replace them 
with a different version if needed. No installation necessary.

The resulting profile, ti3 file, neutrality and deltaE2000 reports (and 
optionally, log) are going to Work by default. Reports are saved in csv format. 

Profile neutrality report is presented in the form of a graph.

delatE2000 report is a table, you can sort it by pressing the column name. 
Obviously, the sorting by error (deltaE2000 column) is the most often case.

Resulting profile contains ti3 data, with some fields added to know what 
parameters were used while profiling.

In my profiling experience it is convenient to put camera serial number  and 
lens type into Description field. 

Any complaints and suggestions are most welcome. If the wrapper emits an error 
please save the log and e-mail it to me.
