I mentioned some time ago that I'd once built a
second processor for
the BBC micro using a 6809.
Interesting...
[...]
I also found an HP Plotfile which *may* be the layout
of this
chip that I'd love to see again - if anyone has a utility to
I assume that's HPGL of some flavour
convert HP plotter codes into something more readable
that they
could run this through in a few minutes (don't put a lot of
effort into it, I can write my own utility if I need to) I'ld
love to see what it looks like again...: http://www.gtoal.com/tmp/plotfile.txt
Do a search for hp2xx. I found this about 6 years ago somewhere on the
net, it would translate HPGL into a number of formats, including .eps . I
assume it's still around somewhere, probably updated by now.
It would only handle a small-ish subset of HPGL, but it managed to
translate the output of EASY-PC (a cheap PCB layout program) into .eps so
I could include it in my LaTeX documents.
