On the subject of fish and color, has anyone else observed this funny:
When only my portrait display (4-bit grayscale) is connected and 16
grays is selected, many fish patterns are garbages on the screen. The
screen area (square) in which the given fish swims becomes a garbled
mess of seemingly random pixels. The rest of the screen is unaffected.
Usually several of the fish are garbaged this way.
Maybe funnier yet is that when a color monitor is also connected and
set for 256 colors (the portrait is still 16 grays), then all the fish
color and gray look fine, and swim from screen to screen, gaining and
losing color depending on the direction they're swimming.
Just a bug?
Scott
