	Does anyone have any experience/comments with either of these products.

	Diga! has something I like, the ability to transform Tek graphics to
Draw Plus format. On the other hand, it appears weak in Tek emulation. No
4014 emulation.

	A-Talk+ on the another hand appears strong in Tek emulation. It at
least supports Tek 4014 emulation. But how well I don't know.

	The reason I'm bringing this up is I want to be able to send Draw Plus
plots to our very expensive (but nice!) Versatec plotter. I am going write
a UNIX filter to do this. I also want to be able to preview plots and troff
output before sending it off to the plotter. I have seen troff/plot images on
a SUN using Tek 4014 emulation.

	Naturally, I want to be able to do the same! I don't have a SUN or
a Tek on my desk, but I do have an Amiga! 8^)

	Thanks in advance!
