If the colors on my screen get "screwed" up somehow, let's say by
directly displaying an image to the screen display, is there a way to
get Motif or X to resisplay the screen correctly.  I have the refresh
and restart options defined on my root menu as follows:
    "Refresh"			f.refresh
    "Restart..."		f.restart
... but niether of these options resets the colors back to what I
originally defined them to be.  The only way for me to fix it is to
get out of X completely and restart from scratch.
Sunview on a color tube does reset the colors correctly from its "root
menu" (this is not meant as a comparison of any kind between the
windowing systems -- so don't jump down my throat).
Am I doing something wrong?  Can X/Motif handle this?  If so, how?
