“Seriously, BASIC is one of my favorite languages!”

How I long for a simple PSET command that will put a dot on the screen so you can graph something wthout having to kill yourself.

I have a personal dialect of Lua that lets me draw graphs in the fashion of a Tek4010. I have variants that run on Windows (scribbling all over a command window), Linux (either directly on the frame buffer or in an X window) and VMS (either ReGIS to a DECterm or, again, in an X window).

I find it very useful. My cow-orkers range from amused by it to indifferent.
