here are some messages I mistakenly posted to the discuss meeting
instead of mailing:
Subject: Re: new version of sc installed in sipb; other cleanup
check_x9700 and check_lw may be mentioned in ancient SIPB docs about
printing; can someone check on this?

Subject: xscreensaver not square
When using a square bitmap, the screensaver window should be square,
but it's not:
xwininfo ==> Window id: 0xa00016 (xscreensaver)
==> Upper left X: 499
==> Upper left Y: 0
==> Width: 24
==> Height: 20
...

Subject: xscreensaver dialog boxes
1) The cursor and text come up black rather than *foreground.
2) in the 'change lock message' box, typing return in an attempt
to get a multi-line message (as one might expect to be able to do given the
size of the box) cancels.
3) When you change the message, and then save the screen, the window
displays it once, then shrinks to the original size, and clips the text
you asked it to display.
[I got this to happen once, but I can't reproduce it]

Subject: xdvi is busted on color
xdvi on color (xdviv) used to work about 3 months ago, but it doesn't
put the text in the foreground anymore; it puts in some random (?) color.
It also flames:
X Toolkit Warning: No type converter registered for 'String' to 'Color' conversion.
