for Extended SNOBOL Picture Pattern Processor

Linda Shapiro, Iwo 1974

SNOBOL for graphics manipulation

  1. provides a high-level method for picture construction. The evaluation of a picture expression (analagous to the SNOBOL4 string-valued expression) causes the construction of a picture.
  2. provides extensive referencing facilities for naming and accessing points, subpictures, and attributes of pictures
  3. It provides predicates for testing attributes of and relationships among pictures and points.
  4. It provides a means for defining picture patterns that describe classes of line drawings in much the same way that SNOBOL4 patterns describe classes of strings.
