README       This file

makefile     This should normally be a copy of (or symbolic link to)
	     the appropriate Makefile for your platform from ../makes, 
	     or an appropriately edited copy of ../makes/generic.mak
	     As distributed, it is what i use myself on Linux.

NOTE about unsupported formats (HWW - these are even less supported now, MK):
------------------------------

  o  to_dj_gr.c  works fine on 386 and 486 CPUs, but I'd rather replace it
                 by code both applicable to DOS and OS/2, and that will be
                 emx.

  o  to_pic.c    The PIC format was mainly used by ATARI programs like
                 Signum. I consider it outdated. Try to work with IMG.

  o  to_pac.c    Similar to PIC (compressed version of PIC), used e. g.
                 by STaD.



For installation, get a suitable makefile from ../makes and follow
intructions in ../makes/README.

For details of operation, see ../doc/hp2xxinf.tex (hp2xx.texinfo).

Optionally test hp2xx with HP-GL files provided in ../hp-tests.
E. g., run

            % hp2xx -h100 -w100 ../hp-tests/ascii.hp

(This should result in a graphical display of the available
 character set 0.)


Enjoy!
