[colord] colormgr documentation and examples

Is there any detailed documentation on how to use colormgr, particularly 
the form and content of the arguments to the various sub-commands, and 
the proper sequence of commands to use for various tasks?  I am trying 
to interrogate the state of color management on my systems, install 
profiles, etc. using scripts.   All I have found so far are 
presentations that highlight the simple things that colormgr can do 
(e.g. "colormgr get-devices") but that don't address how to do anything 
substantial, and "colormgr --help" just lists the sub-commands.   Some 
sample code would be most useful.

Suppose, for example, that I have a profile file myprofile.icc that I 
want to install into colord, make it the default for its monitor, and 
load.  What would the colormgr commands be?

Thanks,
Sanford
