I found a blurb in IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications magazine today
for Tektronix compatible software for the Lisa.
The majority of new products were "IBM PC Compatible"  so it was refreshing
to see something else. Anyway, here's the blurb.

	Mesa Graphics has introduced a Tektronix-compatible software 
application for Apple's Lisa computer. Tekalike is a graphics terminal
communication package that supports communication to remote computers
as an ASCII terminal. In supporting the Tektronix 401X protocol for graphics 
terminal input, Tekalike makes the Lisa plug-to-plug compatible with
Issco's Tell-A-Graf, Cuechart, Tell-A-Plan, and Disspla; Megatek's Template;
Precision Visual's DI-3000 and Grafmaker; SAS/Graph; and SPSS/graph-
as well as Tektronix's Plot-10 and Easygraph. Tekalike also provides local
facilities for saving pictures, zooming, and plotting pictures.
	The Software package sells for $350.
