jagi & i figured out how to get the pen-plotter at recurse-center to work.
we have an hp7440a (1980) which uses hpgl code via serial to operate. the buffer is only 60bytes, so jagi programmed a script that streams longer commands by checking back & forth with the plotter.
here’s a sketch from there that we plotted.
