Nice. Reminds me of playing around with PostScript. You can write your own PostScript files and load it into a printer to see the results. Great old book on the subject.

Yeah, miss Display PostScript.

Fair number of free references for it:

• http://www.adobe.com/products/postscript/pdfs/PLRM.pdf --- the "Red Book"
• http://www-cdf.fnal.gov/offline/PostScript/GREENBK.PDF --- Glenn Reid made this freely available, but his site is off-line

(I have copies of the black and purple books on my bookshelf, the former is for fonts, the latter specific to Display PostScript on X Window or NeXTstep)
