ISI, part of the computer science department at USC, has available
a LISP-pased "grapher."  Gabe Robins is the person responsible for
implementing, and also developing, the algorithms, and has done a 
superb job.  It is written in Common Lisp, and currently runs on HPs, Lisp
machines, TI Explorers, etc.  The graphics calls for the HP version are X,
so it is really quite portable.

There is a license agreement that has to be signed, and there is a very
small charge to cover distribution of the tape, etc.
