Another article of note in that issue is "Interaction of U(1) cosmic
strings: Numerical intercommutation" by Richard Matzner, in which the
3-d perspective color contour plots are screen shots off an Amiga.  He
doesn't mention that the plots were done on his Amiga until the end,
which is why you may have missed it.  His plots were done by sending
multiple contours from the remote host, changing the line color before
each one (using a hack to VT100 -- I think he is switching to VLT
since it is much better suited for this work, assuming he can coax the
remote gfx library routines to send the necessary Tek4105 commands).
