Yes, I couldn't get my book cover designer to use any
of the following, more descriptive words: "old", "ancient",
"archaic". We finally settled on "traditional."

If you want information on how to use the IDL 8 graphics
system, you are better off resorting to prayer. ITTVIS
wishes to keep this information secret. :-)

Cheers,

David

P.S. It could be that IDL 8 graphics are so internally
complicated that no one really knows *how* they work, but
I prefer to use Occam's Razor when looking for an solution. :-)
