I have uploaded a revised version of DOTS. DOTS has several small
improvements and fixes for some bug (including one that interfered
with PostScript output).
I have also uploaded GLOBE, which displays 3D vector graphics like
DOTS, but also displays a unit sphere and removes all the lines hidden
by it. GLOBE is particularly appropriate for displaying geographical
information and the locations of near-Earth satellites. In this case,
it is helpful to display world coastlines as a background.
I have also uploaded WORLD, which has a binary database of world
coastline points, plus a program for producing ASCII files at various
resolutions. (Note that this is different from
pd1:<msdos.worldmap>world.arc.)
pd1:<msdos.graph>
