ximtool is program to view and analyze astronomical images. Its usually
used along with the IRAF (the main analyis software for optical
astronomy), but it can be used on its own.

Actually, I think I might know what the answer is. According to some
astronomy software people, display tools like ximtool, SAOtng, or the
original SAOimage, can only work in 8bpp mode, as the need to set up the
Pseudocolor maps. I was trying to run ximtool in 24bpp. That might have
caused the problem. I still have to try it out though.

Cheers,

David
