crc.tar
        The CRC Graphics Package from Purdue University.  This package
        contains a general-purpose graphics facility for two and three
        dimensional graphics.  Output devices include HP plotters,
        Printronix printers, laser printers, plot(5) format, and so on.

fbm.tar
        The Fuzzy Pixmap Manipulation (FBM) library.  Works in combination
        with Jef Poskanzer's PBM stuff (see PBM.TAR-Z).  Provides a complete
        package for manipulation color and b/w images including 24-bit RGB,
        8-bit mapped color, 8-bit grayscale, and 1-bit bitmaps.

gl_plot.tar
        Routines which provide graphic device support for a number of
        video adapters and printers for PC/AT class computers running
        under Microport System V/AT, Xenix or MS-DOS.  The routines
        emulate the BSD plot(3) library, as well as provide new
        routines.  It runs under MSDOS/ System V/AT, SCO
