I know this has been axed before, but how can you get predictable results from pix_snap?
it seems to me that pix_snap will only take pixel values from the background color - the color you set when you send a |color r g b ( message to gemwin.
I've tried setting the gemhead render order, and I've tried setting the gemwin buffer to 1 or 2.
when I set the gemwin buffer to 1, I _sometimes_ can see that it is outputing pixel values from the screen, when I set the buffer to 2, I can only see that it is reading the backround color info.
attatched is a test patch.
any thoughts?
