Branch: pkgsrc-2008Q1, Version: 3.4.4nb6, Package name: hp2xx-3.4.4nb6, Maintainer: dmcmahill

hp2xx reads HPGL ASCII source files, interprets them, and
converts them into either another vector-oriented format or
one of several rasterfile formats. Currently, its HPGL
parser recognizes a subset of the HP 7550A command set. Some
high-level functions like filled polygons are missing.
Also, only the basic fixed character set 0 is supported.
Beside these limitations, hp2xx has proven to work with many
HP-GL sources without any trouble.

In addition, hp2xx includes an X11 previewer for HPGL files.

Supported vector formats are: TeX/Metafont, emTex-specials,
TeX/epic-Macros, and -I PostScript.

Supported raster formats are: HP-PCL, PCX, PIC, IMG,
PBM, and previews. However, generation of other formats is
made easy for programmers because of hp2xx's modular struc-
ture.
