Hi.

We're still in the dark ages here with our 8bpp PseudoColor
Xterminals. Recently, I ran across this URL,

  http://c3-a.snvl1.sfba.home.com/ColormapFAQ.html

which purported to eliminate colormap flashing when applications
install their own colormap (e.g., `netscape -install'). Unfortunately,
I don't see any difference at all. Will this "trick" not work with
fvwm? Has anyone else tried this with fvwm-2.0.45 and noticed a
difference? FWIW, I also tried using cmap_compact(1) (as mentioned in
the above URL), but that, too, had no visible effect.

  $ uname -a
  SunOS charney 5.5 Generic_103093-12 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-10

Thanks.
