OK, I think I have more to offer here. I did a little looking in the code. In "color.c" there is a line which reads:

fprint(stderr, "Error! can not find color file: %s\n", get_data_base_dir(temp));

This was the error to which I referred in my original post, which read:

Error! can not find color file /xastir/config/xastir.rgb

That tells me that it is looking for a directory named xastir in the root for the hard drive. There is no such directory. It should be reading either /sw/share/xastir/config/xastir.rgb OR ~/.xastir/ config/xastir.rgb (does not exist on my system, but would make sense). In any case, for some reason the get_data_base_dir() function has the wrong path. I haven't traced this back (yet) but I am certain it is part of the problem.

Actually it's not the get_data_base() function ... it's the temp it's getting passed ... since there are so many places with temp this might be harder to track down than I thought. I need someone who already knows the code ...
