(Dis?)claimer -- we sell the product Randy asked about:

Randy,

We developed some of this code nine years ago, then "productized" it
and debuted it at SIGGRAPH '91, the same place Michael first showed
his.  Our inScape C library runs on SGI machines.  We'll be glad to
mail info to those who request it.
