I am looking into how to get graphs into my troff output.  I know about
PIC but it is not good enough for the types of things I would like which
would include filled in bar charts, pies etc.  I once heard something
about IDEAL which was another troff pre-processor, but have not heard
anything recently.  Also someone thinks they heard of a program called
'pltroff' which would translate plot(1) intermediate files into
ditroff 'draw' commands.  Any help would be appreciated.
