If a 3/80's cg4 is like a 4/110's cg4, then the monochrome (default)
"screen" is unix:0.0 and the 8-bit color "screen" is unix:0.1.  You
point a client (say, another copy of awm) at the color side by
specifying 0:1 in DISPLAY or -display.  Then, you switch between the
monochrome and color worlds in video update time just by sliding the
mouse cursor off the sides of the screen.

Now you know why we've got a subnetful of clients named after Wizard
of Oz characters :-)
