I've created a gray scale in gimp of 11 successive squares going from

I want to read the values on my display as seen by my Eye-One-Pro.  I am
trying to use spotread , but I apparently don't understand what I'm
doing.

Problems:
1. I use -N, but it still insists of calibration.

There may be a couple of bugs have crept into this option.

2.  It asks me about FWA, which I don't understand.  I skipped that and
just pressed a key to get XYZ and Lab readings.   But the readings don't
seem to make sense.  In particular the L readings don't decrease
consistently from white to black.  I've tried -d, -db, and -e.

-d should do it. What sort of readings do you get ?
