One minor annoyance of this library that perhaps should have been
mentioned in the posting: the arc() routine needs both floating-point
and the -lm math library. It's hard to fix this, since plot(3) and
HPGL have different ideas of how to specify arcs, and the transformation
requires non-trivial trigonometry. If any masochist out there feels
like figuring out how to do all that without floating-point, I'd be
interested in seeing the result.
