I find the program xmag really useful, but my eyes got tired trying to
count pixels. So I made a quick hack to the program that draws lines
between the blown-up pixels so you can count them.
It uses XOR mode to show contrast, and we all know how perilous that
can be, but the behavior seems acceptable after minimal testing on
X11R4/Sparc I/Sun 4.1.1.
I don't know whether this could go into the R5 distribution, but I
guess we'd need a new command line option (right now it always behaves
this way), and a man page update.
Here's the (short) context diff:
