Desperately seeking library which emits trivial postscript

I desperately need to do plots where the screen contains exactly
three kinds of objects:

	- dot (one pixel)
	- line (specified as (x1, y1, x2, y2)
	- text (specified as (x, y), font, pointsize and string).

I know no postscript as of right now.  Is there a sugar-coated
library whereby I can readily do this?  I can readily imagine a
library where I would issue calls in a certain coordinate system
(which I have to figure out) and nice postscript files would get
written.

C or Pascal are fine by me; I can also hand-translate fortran.

Thanks!

	-ans.
