Abstract

this document describes a set of FORTRAN subroutines collectively called the CALVEC subprogram library. The purpose of the CALVEC software library is the emulation of CALCOMP pen and ink graphics on a DECsystem 10. A user level interface with CALVEC software allows standard CALCOMP subprogram calls to produce a VECtor file, FOR24.VEC. This vector file may subsequently be postprocessed into an image in a variety of ways.
