indeed (and if someone wants to produce a well-tested patch for this, be
my guest).
note that as a workaround, you can pass in the command you want to use:
im.show(command="display")
or override the Image._showxv method, via "monkey patching", e.g.
import Image
def myshow(image, title, *args):
f = os.popen("mydisplayprogram -")
image.save(f, "PNG")
Image._showxv = myshow
</F>
