Digestified net.graphics for 1/27 - 1/3

		     This Week In net.graphics

		   	    Reported by

HELP WANTED DEPARTMENT:
     *	An appeal was made for assistance in converting a FORTRAN program
	into UNIX f77, with provisions for supporting the PLOT10 library.
	Interested in either direct output to 4010/4027 or (even better)
	an interface to the UNIX plot(1) "package".  Contact km@emory.uucp
	if you can help.

     *	A request for a source of the Hidden Surface Removal package that
	Ken Turkowski posted to net.sources back in December.  Contact
	danl@ogcvax.uucp if you can help.

TOPICS OF CONVERSATION:
     *	Continued discussion on animation output techniques, with particular
	interest in computer output to videotape.

     *	New topic - Is there a good way to generate a graphical display of
	the subroutine call trace for a complex program?  In particular:

	     1)	How do you do this locally ("zoomed in" on a section of code)
	     2) How do you do this globally so that only the most
		significant structural information is presented?
	     3) Exactly what branch of knowledge does this fall into?
	     4) Is anybody working on this (VLSI folks, perhaps)?
