WAVE> device, decomposed=0
% Keyword DECOMPOSED not allowed in call to: DEVICE

I guess that I can just run the first programme twice and get over the
problem. Better still, I can put a dummy plot programme in my startup
file to just do a dumb plot, as I find that I get the right colours
in all subsequent plots -- even when I open new windows.

Was the GETCOLOR suggestion in answer to the second question that I
asked (i.e. how do I get to see that palette?)? From what I see, that
is not what I want. I want to be able to see the 255 colours in the
table that I am using. When I issue the color_pallete command, I get
a very thin window which is blank.

thanks for the hints
