[net.sources] Need GKS info

stanojev@uvm-gen.UUCP (Bob Stanojevich) (06/06/85)

      I heard that somebody, a couple months  ago,  posted  where
and how GKS can be obtained. I checked net.graphics, net.sources,
and net.... but unfortunately coudn't find  any  information.  If
somebody  really  did,  could  you  please do it again or send me
mail? We are looking  for  the  GKS  standard  specification  and
source  code  in C. At present, we have a Vax780, Vax750 (running
BSD4.2), DG Eclipse 10000 (running DG-UX), and in couple of weeks
a  few  SUN  workstations.   I called ANSI in New York City (212-
354-3300) but they told me that it  is  not  available  yet,  and
didn't have any idea when it will be.

                                         Thanx !!

This is the second such request I read today, so I will post.  Some
old friends wrote a full GKS graphics package and are selling it.
They have it running on 4.2, and I believe XENIX and System V.

Their company name is Visual Engineering (I think) and they are
in Silicon Valley.  One of the sales guys is named Dave McMurdie.
His home phone number is (415) 833-1621.  Call him for prices, specs,
etc.
