    Hi Tim,
    
    thank you for your help. The setenv MAGIC_COLOR 24bit did the trick and 
    I am now able to see colors correctly in magic.
    
    Your questionning about a recent change in the X11 windows server from 
    Apple are correct:
    
    from macupdate.com website:
    Apple X11
    What's New:
    Version 0.3 adds the following:
    --- > Pseudocolor (8-bit) visual plane support <----
    Option to quit X11 without presenting warning dialog
    Command-Q keyboard shortcut to quit X11
    Command-, to bring up preferences dialog
    Keyboard mappings with dead keys fixed
    Linking against libGL no longer results with multiple definitions of 
    glGetColorTableEXT
    Locked files left behind in /tmp no longer block non-admin users from 
    starting X11
    Windows can be resized by user to any size and not be limited by the 
    Dock's height
    Dragging remotely hosted windows no longer causes crash
    Hardware accelerated scrolling in 16 bit mode now works
    X Server no longer crashes if application tried to retrieve data back 
    from the framebuffer using XGetImage
    Bug fixes and other feature enhancements

    Unfortunatly, I do not know about this. However, I could try a couple 
    of combinations and see what happens when I compile them... I guess 
    trying all the different combinations for this would be a start.
    
    Thanks again!
