Around 1989 I wrote some simple routines to make "line-plots" using VWS. 
So at that time I had access to some sort of manual. At that time I was 
working at a different university, so I have no idea where that manual is.

However, I found on my computer the Fortran sources (Did not use them 
since the early 90's when I changed to AXP-machines). The naming/calling 
of the routines I created are similar to the ones in the 
"Calcomp-graphics-Library", of which documentation can be found 
"on-line". However I coded only a very limited subset.
If you like, I can share the code with you.
