MI/X only supports 256 colors.  It is a little weird because a few years
ago, SN only supported 256 colors too.  This was the last time I tried
this little trick.

Anyhow, I'm not sure about the colormap parameter - someone that works a
little more frequently on SN will need to pipe up about it.  Have you
thought about compiling it to just run on windows?  Or just running it
on a unix system of some sort?

I believe eXceed (from Hummingbird) is a little more reliable, however,
it is also quite a bit more expensive if that may be an issue for you.
