You can get the X11IRAF package from this site:
http://macsingularity.org/downloads/
This package includes xgterm and ximtool. Just run ximtool from the command
line and you will get a window with a file button which will let you load a
.fits image file. You will see the color problem as soon as you load the
file (the bar below the image represents the 256 colors, it should be a
grayscale gradient). You should be able to click in the window with the
right mouse button and move the mouse around to remap the range and contrast
of the mapping.
Contact me directly and I will point you to where you can download .fits
files.
