Without being able to do this I cannot dither the Pygmalion screen into an X11 bitmap file. Without this file we cannot use our scheme of redefining the root window to look like Pygmalion and the run Muse on top. However, we still can get Pygmalion up on the Visual workstation do an XWD dump of the root window. Then do an XWUD and run muse on top of that. This takes more memory that the bitmap scheme, and redisplay takes longer, but it should still work. If the redisplay is really too slow, we can edit it out.... Brian
