I have a little Xt based program that needs to allocate some color cells.

For the 'xnews' server, the default visual is StaticColor, but there
is a PsuedoColor visual available. How do I get my widget hierarchy to
use *that*  visual when the time comes to 'Realize'?
My attempts thusfar all result in BadMatch errors.

(I know about the 'USE_MIT_VISUALS' environment variable. I would prefer
to solve this in the client.)

Thanks
