MAPPER; report-quality graphics on command. [IBM360,370; DEC10; FORTRAN IV]
MAPPER is designed to provide a command language whereby non-programmers can produce report quality visual aids. The user can produce presentation and report quality slides, graphs, charts, tables, and maps in both color and black and white on 35mm film, Tektronix terminals, and Versatec and CalComp plotters. MAPPER can also be used to make 35mm and 16mm color or black and white movies. MAPPER can draw boxes, circles, ellipses, and complex line segments in a wide variety of line formats. There are six types of label commands and twelve lettering styles available to meet labeling requirements. Label options include manual sizing and location, two forms of automatic sizing and location, flexible string control, rotation, justification control, and multiple line capability. The user has a choice of color control and selective shading of specific areas. Symbols may be defined, positioned, scaled, distorted, and shaded as specified. Axes, curves, and error bars may be drawn. Additional features include user-defined logos, skipping, multilevel projection ports, contouring, three types of file subroutine usage, movie generating commands, and FORTRAN support capabilities.IBM360,370;DEC10; FORTRAN IV; OS/MVS (IBM360,370), TOPS 10 (DEC10); DISSPLA software is required along with appropriate film, plotter, and graphics input devices (e.g. CalComp 1036 and 1055 plotters, Versatec and Gould 5005 plotters, FR-80 film recorder, and Tektronix 4010-compatible terminals and Graphics Tablet), and 470K bytes of storage (IBM360,370) or 178 plus 15 pages of virtual memory (DEC10).
