IBM markets a graphics library called
"IBM Personal Computer Plotting System Library".
This library is callable from the following languages
IBM Personal Computer Basic Compiler, Version 1.00 or later
Lattice C Compiler, Version 2.00 or later (I have had problems with 3.00)
IBM Personal Computer FORTRAN Compiler, Version 2.00 or later
IBM Professional Fortran Compiler
The output from the library is device independent, with device drivers
being available for all of the devices you have indicated.
I am not positive about this, but the package may actually have been written
by GSS (I forget what the initials stand for).
