20020424: gempak ntl

Steven,

The color allocation trouble is typically caused by the X server not 
using an 8 bit default visual. Make sure you have configured your X server 
for 8 bits. If you are running with the display as 8 bits, use the "freeColors" 
program to check your color table allocation. In particular, some Linux
window managers will reserve all the colors as read-only which is not
compatible with GEMPAK.
