Pop open the ncolor program (from ntl or command line and use the far left
(color 0) location to changethe default background color at any time.

Use the "depictables" menu and set the symbol packing to the highest value,
eg to the right. You can decrease the font used by setting the text size
to the far left.

Edit the $GEMTBL/sat/imgtyp.tbl file and change the sabir enhancement to
a different one, or GRAY for the desired band and platform.
