No, no, not "TeX graphics" but PostScript! It's becoming a
standard for many high-quality (== laser?) printers and is
also a good practice for any CS undergrad (RPN, anyone?)

I even have a bunch of macros for the most common symbols,
but I'd be ashamed to show them in public (moreover, if my
ex-PhD advisor is reading this group too, you'll soon see
"*****, GET BACK TO WORK !!!!!")

A question, then: since laserwriters aren't very common
in private hands, are there any translation programs which
would take a PostScript input and drive a med-resolution
dot-matrix printer (ImageWriter, for instance?)

By the way, the suggestion is wonderful, and it shouldn't
be limited to schematics (PC layouts, too !) If we could
only get NSF funding for slaves who would write the stuff ...
