Alternate colormap for sunview baseframe??

[Dr. Coleman]

When a set of suntools is invoked by suntools, the base frame and all its
subframes inherit by default the colormap cms_mono. If one writes a
sunview program, one can assign a frame and its subframes a different
colormap with a size that is a power of 2.  One can also change the
foreground and background colors of the default colormap using appropriate
suntools options. So much for what CAN be done.  BUT, can one invoke
suntools so that the base frame and all of the frames and subframes in the
window system inherit a different user specified colormap of appropriate
size (power of 2) by default unless a tool specifies its colormap
explicitly? If this were possible, it would make it easy to make tooltool
applications colorful.

Alternately, has anyone modified the suntools.c code so that the user can
specify an alternate colormap.
