Huh? Didn't know windows has this! But that's the thing I had in mind  
(though it seems it's integrated in the windows-desktop and not external).

It's not that difficult (at least on aranym):

1. Download the gradient-directory from the cvs

2. copy a template to your new file (e.g. my.c)

3. write gradients=my in xaaes.cnf

4. do your changes

5. type make my.grd

6. copy my.grd over into XaAES-gradient-dir

7. restart XaAES

8. Goto 4. or done.

But when you enter wrong values XaAES may crash badly (changing rgb-values  
seems not risky).
