Netlanders,
        I am the administrator of a SCO Xenix 2.3.1 system.  We are running on
a 386 IBM/AT with ~4MB of RAM, 150MB hard disk, and 32 ports of Computone
serial ports.  We recently purchased a graphics package called Grafsman from
Southwind Software.  The results are good, but often Grafsman will crash my
system -- when uucico is running on our Telebit, or sometimes at random
intervals.
        I need some information.  The manufacturer of the software has been
less than cooperative in attempting to find a solution.  I would like to hear
from anyone out there who may have any information about graphics software for
Xenix.  My needs are:  high quality graphics output to a Houston Instruments
DMP-29 plotter, and good graphics output to Falco and Wyse 99GT terminals
(both emulating Tektronics 4010).  Speed, power, and ease of use would be
major plusses {8^).
        Please E-mail responses rather than posting.  If I get enough good
responses, I'll summarize and post again.  Also, feel free to call (toll free)
as this is relatively urgent.  Thanks in advance!
