Yes, MS 5.0 supports graphics.  Basically it is the same graphics
package as that with MS C 5.0, and I was able to translate my C graphics
into Fortran graphics quite easily.  MS 5.0 supports a record structure
the same as a C structure, which is used by the graphics library.  So if
you can do it in MS C, you can do it with MS Fortran.
