I know for a fact that is written in the Prodos Technical Reference guide
and perhaps a tech note or two.  I'll look it up and type it in
for you when I have the book handy.

I just found that in an article out of nibble magazine about bridging from 
applesoft to assembler.  It should be sitting on my desk at home right now.
Its just a matter of loading a register or two, setting some zero page
values, and calling the routine, but don't put code in page three, or
the hplot routines might eat it.
