Since it doesn't happen in all examples I thought I'd see if it turns up in any more as I get them ported to Ada to see if some kind of pattern emerges. I'm not messing with the color table as far as I know so it seems like some weird voodoo at work--but doesn't it always. I have completed the Ada example 8 (not yet submitted) and am working on example 9 which is harder than the others. With that done, we will have 1 through 10 and 12 working.
