I have an Applesoft program that will read a Tektronix 4010 plot file and draw it in the Hi-Res picture space. But it has two problems. It is very slow being in BASIC and all AND it draws in Hi-Res Space instead of Double Hi-Res, thus making the line widths unsightly. I am not proficient in writing code on the 65C02 level but would like to see it done to enable a faster and higher quality plot to be produced. Anyone want to fool with this? -- David M.
