[net.graphics] NAPLPS text/graphics interchange protocol

gurr@west44.UUCP (Dave Gurr) (03/12/84)

I am an undergraduate at London University unertaking a final year project
using the NAPLPS (North American Presentation Level Protocol Syntax) system
of text/graphics interchange (also an ISO standard - sorry, I don't know the
number!).

Can anyone out there give me some reactions on NAPLPS if they have used it?
Is it in wide use yet? Are there any NAPLPS handlers for any micros? Moreover,
what drawbacks have you found in it?
