[obligatory first time user expression of humility follows...]

Hi there!  This is my first time posting to the net so be kind and
excuse any gross mistakes I might be making.  I couldn't find an FAQ
list in the news spool, so if the question I'm going to ask is an FAQ,
please spare me the wrath of your righteous indignation.  I would wait
for an FAQ to come along but I am desperate, so desperate.

The question is:

Is there a PHIGS-based 2D plotting package callable from C that's
usable on VMS, easy to get, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg?

Please send me email as I am so overworked I rarely get a chance to
read the news.
