There are lots of (confusing) ways to view an image. Often you'll have to try several of these before the image looks ``right.''

X terminal

Nice(!) X display tool; this sells the package

• Supports color, greyscale, monochrome terminals
• Interactive zoom function
• Interactive animation (forward, backward, step)

getx11 foo.rle

Color dithering with 240 levels is the default.

cat foo.rle | getx11 -n 256

Use 256 levels

cat foo.rle | getx11 -a

No dithering, display ``as is''

rlequant -b 6 -f foo.rle | getx11

No dithering, use variance-based quantization to 6 bits with ``fast'' heuristic
