I desperately need a program which will convert HPGL (Hewlett Packard -
Graphics Language) to EPS (encapsulated Postscript) format so I can place
graphics in my FINAL WRITER 3 documents. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in
advance.

Get hp2xx-3.1.4.tar.gz from your nearest GNU distribution site,
and compile it :-). It can convert HPGL files into various formats,
such as EPS, ilbm, pcx, pbm etc.

I can successfully compile it with gcc-2.5.8 and libnix07, so
I think you can compile it with DICE or SAS/C.

I seem to remember that MultiPlot (version XLNf v 1.06) available on Fish disk
918 comes with a HPGL2PS program (A HP (Hewlet Packard) plot command filter to
PostScript for the Commodore Amiga, Ported 7/8/1990 by Dr Alan G Baxter). May
that can help...
