Subject: How to convert a NeWS image (.im1) to X bitmap format?

I am looking for a way to snap a region from the NeWS screen and then
convert the image to an X bitmap file. These would probably be done in
separate steps. Perhaps there is already a utility for snapping part of the
screen and dumping it as an .im8 or .im1 file. And if I'm lucky someone
else has created a way to convert these file formats to the X bitmap
format.

I am on a monochrome X server if that helps at all.

P.S. Why, you ask? Because the bitmap drawing tools in X stink and I would
like to take some nice images I have created in NeWS (and the globe images)
and use them in an X application.
