Partial sol'n is to use hershey` package from Mathsource. It's partial because you have to do a lot of work after getting and installing the package. I quit trying to do it myself after realizing my lack of knowledge about psychology. Systat graphics doc has some more info on this one. Good luck. BTW, the usenet posts are no longer threaded. It's extremely inconvenient to follow the topics. I hope this can be corrected soon. Daitaro Hagihara
