Exporting SGI graphics?

[hoffmann at urzdfn.kartographie.tu-dresden.dbp.de]

Martin, I am just exploring the SGI tools to apply for GRASS (new).
There are VERY new instruments to use for... like IMGSCAN & IMGWORKS.
The only problem is that the average file size is just about 1 Mega
when saved as *.TIFF
So far we do not have a color printer operating yet, I thought about to send
you a file for your "G-hopper beginning manual..." that way... Could you
handle such a Megafile for color plotting (as an experiment?).

Did you get any response from Mr. Flemming & vs. ?

And a special question to the GRASS-profis at CERL:
- I am running the GRASS windows now on the SGI monster, but 4.0 is still
  working on TEK machine
- all seems to work normally when re-direct the output to the
  SGI window (I tested 3D landscape "flying around"...
- the problem arises when trying to expand the SGI window to full size
  (it works without problems in created size) just before starting
  our application script...
FAILURE MESSAGES:

  X error of failed request: Bad Match
  mfcode: 73 (X_GetImage)
  sfcode:  0
  ResID code appears
  Serial number of failed request appears
  Serial output number of f-q appears
  ERROR "eof" from Graphics driver
  Please start graphics monitor
  Error x0 not running...  (the window got BLACK and out)

I re-directed the output from TEK to SGI with "setenv DISPLAY (IP-Nr.):0.0.
So, any hints how to enlarge the window without it disappearing
after starting. On the TEK the GRASS window can be enlarged without any
problems before starting the application script.
