3D version of PictureRLISP MLG 4 Jan 1983
------------------------------------------------------
This is a brief guide to the 3D version of Picture RLISP. This is much
slower than the PRLISP2D subset, which is better if only planar
displays are required. PRLISP can now be run under PSL as well, though
of course with no syntax.
RLISP Use:
LOAD PRLISP; % Load 3D version of PictureRLISP
HP!.INIT(); % Select Driver, this is most common HP2648a version
Line := {0,0} _ {10,10}; % Line from center towards upper-right
Show Line; % Draw it
Show Line | ZROT(25); % Draw rotated by 25 degrees
Erase(); % Clear screen
Show Line & (Line | scale 3 | zrot 20 ) | xmove 10;
For more examples, see PU:PR-DEMO.RED, use IN "PU:PR-DEMO.RED"$
PRLISP can also be loaded and run from PSL, but no syntax is
available:
(LOAD PRLISP)
(HP!.INIT)
(setq LINE (POINTSET (ONEPOINT 0 0) (ONEPOINT 10 10)))
(SHOW LINE)
(SHOW (TRANSFORM LINE (ZROT 25)))
(ERASE)
(SHOW (GROUP LINE (TRANSFORM
(TRANSFORM (TRANSFORM Line (SCALE 3))
(ZROT 20))
(XMOVE 10))))
For more examples, see PU:PR-DEMO.SL, run with
(LAPIN "PU:PR-DEMO.SL")
