I'm looking for a program to convert from some graphic
standard (I don't much care which, as long as it's supported
in pbmplus) to  the Tektronix 4010 format.

I also need a program to play the resulting file on an 4010
emulator.  All it needs to do is let the user page up and down
and quit from the viewing.

My application: Allow users at remote locations to use the Kermit
Tek4010 emulator to see graphs and text during an online session 
with my machine, a Sun Sparcstation, Sun0S.  The users may be on
PCs, Macs, or whatever.

I'm really getting desperate--I thought this would be a fairly 
common need, but so far no luck.  Much THANKS in advance,

Try (e.g. for pcx):

cat name.pcx | pcxtoppm | ppmtopgm | pgmtopbm | pbmtoplot | tplot -Ttek
