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. Contributor: Dave Curry <[e-mail]>
DELTAC.TAR  Compress and uncompress 8-bit image files using delta modulation. Achieves about 20% better compression than compress(1) on these files. Contributor: Diomidis Spinellis <[e-mail]>
DRAW.TAR  A library of routines to produce plots in various formats including plot(3) and HPGL, and a utility "draw" which acts as a front end. Contributor: Juha Takala <[e-mail]>
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. Contirbutor: Michael Mauldin <[e-mail]>
FC.TAR  The Fast Clipper 2-D line clipping algorithm.  Twice as fast as the Colin-Sutherland method. Contributor: John Schultz <[e-mail]>
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 Contributor: <[e-mail]>
GRAPHPLS.TAR  A program to generate line graphs from tables of data. Contributor: Alan Kent <[e-mail]>
IPL.TAR  A 2-D graphics production system which produces scatter plots, line plots, bar graphs, range displays, pie graphs, U.S./Canada maps, schedule charts, boxes, arrows, text, etc.  PostScript or SunView output. Contributor: Steve Grubb <[e-mail]>
MTV.TAR  The MTV Raytracer, which does raytracing. Contributor: Mark VandeWettering <[e-mail]>
PBM.TAR  Tools for manipulating bitmaps.  Can convert between Sun icon, Sun raster, X10, X11, MacPaint formats.  Can also convert to PostScript or Printronix printer for output. Contributor: Jeff Poskanzer <[e-mail]>
POPI.TAR  The "popi" graphics editor.  Based on the code in the book "Beyond Photography - the digital darkroom" by Gerard J. Holzmann of AT&T Bell Labs. Contributor: RIch Burridge <[e-mail]>
QUADTREE.TAR  Encodes bitmaps as "quadtrees".  Includes an X11 previewer. Contributor: Robert S. Glickstein <[e-mail]>
RAYSHADE.TAR  Reads a multi-line ASCII file describing a scene to be rendered and produces a Utah Raster RLE format file of the raytraced image. Version 3.0. Contributor: Craig Kolb <[e-mail]>
SUNCTOBW.TAR  Convert Sun color (8 bit) bitmaps to black and white (one bit) bitmaps. Contributor: <[e-mail]>
SUNPLOT.TAR  A back end to the "plot" (plot(5)) program to display graphs in a SunTools window. Contributor: Sjoerd Mullender <[e-mail]>
SUNRAST.TAR  A set of library subroutines for reading and writing Sun raster files. Contributor: Marc Majka <[e-mail]>
TEK.TAR  A Tektronix 4014 emulator for Xenix systems with the CGI package. Contributor: Ronald Florence <[e-mail]>
TIF2RAST.TAR  Convert TIFF files to Sun raster files. Contributor: William W. C. Wu <[e-mail]>
TOUCHUP.TAR  A bitmap editor (paint program) for Sun workstations.  It has some of the same features as MacPaint. Contributor: Raymond T. Kreisel <[e-mail]>
TRACER.TAR  A program to do ray tracing of balls. Contributor: Sid Grange <[e-mail]>
URT.TAR  The University of Utah RLE Toolkit, Version 2.0 (July, 1988).  This is a toolkit full of programs for creating and manipulating raster files. Contributor: University of Utah C.S. Dept.
VOGLE.TAR  A device-independent 3-D graphics package.  Includes PC drivers, Sun, X11, and Apollo drivers.  Version 1.1. Contributor: Eric Echidna <[e-mail]>
VOPL.TAR  A plotting library written in Vogle (see above). Contributor: Eric Echidna <[e-mail]>
VORT.TAR  A rendering toolkit for doing constructive solid geometry and algebraic surfaces.  Display drivers include Sun, X11, Apollo, Iris, and VGA.  Version 1.1. Contributor: Eric Echidna <[e-mail]>
VPLOT.TAR  A device-independent plotting utility with lots of device drivers for graphics terminals as well as printers and plotters. Contributor: Joe Dellinger <[e-mail]>
WDB2.TAR  Software to process the World Data Bank II dataset (not included) and produce a rectangular projection for a specified latitude and longitude in UNIX plot format. Contributor: Alan Paeth <[e-mail]>
