Abstract

EPLOT was designed as an inexpensive and interactive small graphics library to be run on workstations, stand-alone microcomputers and mainframes, or microcomputers used as graphics terminals. It started as a minor extension to the machine-independent UNIX PLOT library but now includes capabilities for menu and mouse operations, animation, and other functions required in student projects. EPLOT allows the easy development and transfer of interactive graphics programs between SUN, MSDOS, Amiga, ATARI, and Apple Macintosh systems. It has played an important role in the philosophy of the computer graphics course offered at the authors' institution. The scope of EPLOT is demonstrated through a series of projects and programs. >
