Hello there,
If you are really stuck and need the code for the generation of the
wheels then my favourite wheel drawing program, ProGraph, which runs on the
PC, comes with (Turbo) Pascal source code. So, if you are up to a bit of
translation..... [its much easier than doing C to Pascal :-) ]
ProGraph is available from the EMBL fileserver (ftp.EMBL-Heidelberg.DE)
or mailserver (NetServ at EMBL-Heidelberg.DE). Thanks to Kay Hofmann for a great
program and for supplying the code.
