I have received a number of requests for such a program, and a while back I
received one written by D. McCormick.  It is now available from the
sun.soe.clarkson.edu archive server.  To receive the files you must send
mail to archive-server@sun.soe.clarkson.edu containing the line:

send hpgl hpgl.shar.1

and 

send hpgl hpgl.shar.2

These must be in two different mail files, since some mailers will truncate
files > 100K.  If you are on a UUCP or BITNET site you must use the path
command to avoid bounced responses from the server; send mail consisting
of the word "help" for detailed instructions on the server.

You can also ftp it from sun.soe.clarkson.edu in ~ftp/pub/hpgl/*.
