How to get idraw

The idraw utility mentioned several times in this documentation is a freely distributable interactive drawing editor for the X Window System. It may be used to edit the output of graph -T ps, or, in general, the output of any application that uses the Postscript Plotter support contained in libplot.

The current version of idraw is maintained by Vectaport, Inc., and is available at their Web site. It is part of the ivtools package, which is a framework for building custom drawing editors. idraw was originally part of the InterViews package, developed by Stanford University and Silicon Graphics. The InterViews package is available at a distribution site but is no longer supported. Retrieving the ivtools package instead is recommended.

Also available at Vectaport's Web site is an enhanced version of idraw called drawtool. drawtool can import bitmapped graphics in TIFF and PBM/PGM/PPM formats, as well as in the X11 bitmap format that idraw can import.
