There is a package called RDGP available for the IBM PC. It is very
simple. Look in the back of Mathematical Elements for Computer Graphics, 
2nd ed by Rogers and Adams, McGraw-Hill 1990.

Also there is a package available to go along with Foley, van Dam, Feiner
and Hughes. It is available by ftp. Check it out in the book also.
