Thanks, David! This is great. Now I don't have to open a virtual terminal
with 8 bits/pixel whenever I need a GIF image of my IDL window.

In fact, my next wish is that RSI would finally support 16 bits/pixel
on Unix. That is my default - I have to open a virtual terminal with
24 bits/pixel every time I want use IDL's graphical abilities :-(

Best regards,
Kevin
