Since this is something I'm sure many of you out there have done, I
hope someone can help me...

I need to make a screen representation of the bezier curves I am
sending to the LaserWriter.  Although I am familiar with the basic
ideas of splines, I do not know exactly how the bezier curves in
postscript are defined.  Can someone out there either 
	a) show me the mathematical description of a bezier curve
or
	b) show me some code that does this?
I'm not terribly picky about the language for (b), although I do most
of my programming in good ol' Think C.
My deepest gratitude is extended to any who can help.
