This is in reply to a recent request by venki@midway.ece.scarolina.edu.
It is a version of a mail message I sent him.

Our machine was off the network due to some hardware problems, sorry about
that.  I wrote someone else about graph+ (I think I should call it
graph+vplot) I rewrote graph+ to use a publically available plotting
system called vplot (Not legally PD, but available as a free ftp'able
distribution for most of us)  And using the additional features of vplot
over plot(5), I added simple features like control over font sizes and
stroke width.  Other than that it is the same graph+ written by Alan Kent
from Melbourne, Australia!  He should be credited as the author of graph+.

I'll try to free up time to package graph+vplot suitably for a public
release.  Probably as a package without vplot, since vplot can be had off
the net (and it is a large package by itself) I think what I will do is
re-write the plotting code into a interface code file, allowing others to
re-write graph+ for other, perhaps local, plotting packages (DI-3000,
superplot...)
