  Draw plus has output configuration files that it creates its output data
from.  There are strings for Pen Down, Pen Up, Move, etc.  All very simple
stuff.  There are also strings to dump at the beginning and end of job.

   It seams that it would be very easy to come up with strings to dump
to a postscript plotter to handle this.

   I haven't had the need for this yet, but if the opportunity strikes...


(My memory may be a little fuzzy, I havn't messed with the output files
since I got the program and had to fix one)
