I'm trying to get our TEK 4115A's to talk graphics with our
HP-9000/500. The only problem is that the TEK doesn't behave like any
of the devices that HP wrote drivers (handlers? i'm not sure of the
correct term) for. What I want to be able to do is use the STARGATE
graphics system along with the TEK's to teach graphics to the under-
grads here. I've looked through all of the manuals, and while HP does
tell you how to write programs that run on any of their terminals (just
use their libraries), they don't say a thing about how to write device
handlers. Has anybody out there written anything similar? Or has
anybody written any device handlers for HP-9000's? Any help you could
give would be greatly appreciated.

HP sells a Starbase graphics library device driver writing guide. The product includes manuals and example source code. I suggest that you check with the local HP sales office for ordering information. Mike Stroyan, hpfcla!stroyan
