I can't find any references to graphics software for the EGA
on my Xenix 2.00 (IBM) system. Does anyone know of/have software to
do this? Something as simple as the unix 'plot' libraries would be
sufficient.
Thanks,

The only PC UNIX which supports them is PC/IX, as far as I know. Having said that, there is an IOCTL call in IBM Xenix which allows you to get the address of the bitmapped display (as a far pointer?). I haven't looked at it in a while, but I saw it demonstrated and have looked at the writeup in the manual. -- bill davidsen sixhub \ ihnp4!seismo!rochester!steinmetz -> crdos1!davidsen chinet / ARPA: davidsen%crdos1.uucp@ge-crd.ARPA (or davidsen@ge-crd.ARPA)
