Until I get X-windows, I'd like to use the Unix "plot" command for some
low-level graphics.  However, when I try to do a "plot -Tapollo.15.color"
(or any other display description), it dies saying something about
font initialization failing.  When I do a plot -T4014 logged in from
a remote Tektronix emulator, everything works fine. I'm running 10.1
on an Apollo DN10000.
   Also, under BSD4.3 is there any way to create a tektronix window
for telnet (say, when I'm logging into a Cray somewhere?).  Alternately,
is there any way to display a tek command file in a window as graphics?
   Can the GPR calls be used without installing a full Aegis environment?
When I try compiling the Fortran sample programs, the compile fails because
it can't find the needed include files in /sys/ins  (I don't even seem
to have a /sys/ins directory).
