Code to do this from an arbitrary-depth image to an arbitrary-depth
display (except TrueColor and DirectColor visuals) can be had from
send.c in xloadimage 1.06, available by anonymous ftp from
expo.lcs.mit.edu in /contrib/xloadimage.1.06.tar.Z.  This code works
fine under OpenWindows.

Happy hacking,
