General

This manual was prepared to document the LONGLIB graphics library. This latest revision of the library is NOT completely compatible with previous versions of the LONGLIB graphics library. It is anticipated that additional MASTER subroutines will be incorporated in the future as they are needed.

The LONGLIB graphics library is a set of FORTRAN subroutines for vector plotting (line graphics). The library is similar to CALCOMP or PLOT10; however, a great many extensions are incorporated into the LONGLIB library including viewport clipping, plot rotation, etc. In addition, the LONGLIB library includes a large set of routines for such things as 3-d plotting (with hidden line removal), extended character sets, MASTER routines, graphics input routines, map routines, etc.
