+Gri is a language for scientific graphics applications. By 'language'
+I mean that it is a command-driven application, as opposed to a
+click/point application. It is analogous to latex or tex, and shares
+the property that extensive power is the reward for tolerating a
+learning curve. Gri output is in PostScript, suitable for
+incorporation in documents prepared by various text processors.
+
+Gri can make x-y graphs, contour-graphs, and image graphs. In
+addition to high-level capabilities, it has enough low-level
+capabilities to allow users to achieve a high degree of customization.
+Control is extended to all aspects of drawing, including
+line widths, colors, and fonts. Text includes a subset of the tex
+language for letters and mathematical symbols in labels.
