- I'm looking for some software to drive a Houston Instruments CPS14
- plotter. This is an old plotter that doesn't speak any of the new
- plotter graphics languages such as dmpl or hpgl. The manual has a
- some info on the ptc-5 controller, but no useable code. Apparently
- when it was new it came with a package called Complot which was a
- subroutine library that worked with the plotter.
-
- Has anyone written any software to work with one of these plotters
- that they would be willing to share? Houston Instruments no longer
- has software avail for the plotter, they only suggested upgrading
- the controller (for more dollars than I paid for the plotter) so it
- could talk dmpl.

- Thanks,
