Sound Presentations is a commercial drawing program for the UNIXpc. As you can guess, it's based on the GSS graphics model (in other words, it's not a bitmappy kind of thing; it's an object kind of thing). One of the things you can do is glue some set of drawing primitives together and store them as a "symbol" for reuse. SP comes with a bunch or you can make your own. The GSS.Symbols stuff in THE STORE! is some person's reasonably large collection of symbols that they made one summer. -- -- Bill Carpenter att!ho5cad!wjc or attmail!bill
