- We have recently converted from main-frame usage to a farm of IBM RS6000
- workstations. On the mainframe we mostly used Disspla (Issco version) to
- make plots and draw graphs. Severeal of our users have programs that make
- explicit reference to Disspla subroutines. Since we do not feel that buying
- Disspla for our workstation is a good and affordable solution, we would
- like to know whether anyone ever created a set of subroutines that emulate
- (most of the) Disspla calls by making graPHIGS calls.
-
- If any of the people on this group knows of such a utility, please let me know.
