GRAPHICS INFO FROM J. G. MODROW


       A. MDRAW.BAS, HDRAW.BAS, DRAW.CMT and DRAW.DOC are derived
          from PDRAW.BAS on the IBM PC Club disk ADX0003.

          MDRAW is the same as PDRAW except that it initializes
          with black background, white line and includes a Help
          Table printed in normal or condensed print modes on an
          Epson or IBM printer.

          HDRAW is MDRAW converted to high resolution mode.

          DRAW.CMT is all the comments identifying the modules
          and subroutines in MDRAW and HDRAW.  DRAW.CMT is a
          BASIC program that is only comment lines.  DRAW.CMT
          is in ascii format so that it can be merged with either
          M or HDRAW.  Load M or HDRAW then MERGE "DRAW.CMT"
          and LIST the resulting program.

          DRAW.DOC is the documentation for these programs.
          The file is edited to reflect both versions of the 
          program and to be listed or `typed' the same way as
          this file.

       B. The Painter/Pallete programs from MICRO-G are not
          as good as the above two programs for drawing.
          They do have a variable size paintbrush and let
          you automatically get more than four colors at one
          time in medium res mode.  It's of questionable value.

       C. Byte, November 1982 had several articles on graphics
          that may be of interest.  Programs tended to be for
          the Apple but may prove useful.  There was an article
          on how to build a vector type video display.  Two
          other articles were on 3-D graphics for the Apple
          and building a video digitizer.

       D. Engineering Software for Micros  by: B. J. Korites,
          Kern Publications developes some simple CAD program
          modules for micro computers.  The listings are in
          Apple BASIC but they also sell a disk with the 
          programs for the IBM PC DOS 1.1.  The book is about
          $25 and the disk $20.  The listings are purposely kept
          straight forward so they can be easily understood and
          modified.  A good elementary text.

       E. Graphic Software for Microcomputers,  by: B. J. Korites,
          Kern Publications is a good self-teaching text for 2
          and 3 dimensional graphics.  A comprehensive range of
          tools in Apple BASIC is covered.  A disk with the 
          program modules changed for the IBM PC is available.
          The book is about $22 and the disk $20.
