[net.graphics] UNIX System 5 Graphics

Many of the commands in System 5 graphics have a "region" option.
These regions seem to work in very mysterious ways. I would appreciate
it if anyone could explain exactly were the regions are supposed
to be and how large they should each be.

Shouldn't this have been in net.astro?
