Hi, I am working on a front end to xicclu/colprof would like to be able to
plot the graphs from xicclu in my own application.

For example, my application would provide a GUI for the CMYK printer
profile scenario described here:

In that scenario, we use xicclu as follows to evaluate black generation
curves:

xicclu <http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/xicclu.html>
-g<http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/xicclu.html#g>
 -kz <http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/xicclu.html#k>
-l290<http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/xicclu.html#l>
 -fif <http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/xicclu.html#f>

When calling xicclu this way, I don't want the new window xicclu creates. I
just want to dump the input/output CMYK values so I can draw the plot in my
own window. How can I do this?
