I have been running xv on my machine locally as well as from a remote host
though the X-term on my local machine.  I have found the colors don't
seem to be correct.  Especially the yellow.  It seems to come out a sort
of magenta color.  I know that I can change the color map using the color
tool in xv.  What I'd like to do is find a way to get a "gif" or some
other method that would give me a color wheel or color bar chart so that I
would have known "True" colors to work from.  That way I should be able
to come up with a color correction for my particular system.  Anyone have
any ideas ?

Followups would be fine, direct e-mail replys would be even better.

Thanks, in advance.
