I already presented a way to make it exact, but if you missed it, here we
go again: (Some sort of startup-procedure..)

1. Calc on.
2. Password program prompts for password.
3. If password is correct, program displays all possible grayscales and
gives user an opportunity to adjust contrast. If user doesn't want to
adjust it, he/she presses enter or something.
4. Similar adjustment when grayscale mode is off.
5. Program then stores values for grayscale- and bw-mode to a certain
variable or something where they're accessible for other programs.

This method should give exact results.. :)
