  Sounds great.  ;)

  I may be able to turn some small sample code into what I'd like...

(basically a delay before screen changes of 1/4 of a second, and the 
ability to control how many pixels wide each rect is... defaulting to 
1 pixel each, default to a fullscreen mode not window'd app, ability 
to pick the color range that is scrolled over so that it's possible 
to narrow down where the bad colors are, and the ability to print 
color number to stdout for start/end of page.)
