BALLISTIC.CAL calculates ballistic tables for bullets given the initial velocity and Ballistic Coefficient.

			For people who do not have access to a plotter such as the original HP7475, HP7550 or Bruning Zeta plotter, I have written a couple F77 program that reads a VECTOR.LST file that Graph produces when the output is directed to disk and then establishes a TCP/IP connection to port 9100 on a Color Laser printer or a later model HP printer/plotter like the T520. This should work on any printer that understand HPGL. The plot size can be adjusted to be compatible with various size paper by editing a configuration fille of Escape and HPGL initialization codes that replace the HPGL initialization code from VECTOR.LST. On the T520, I've tested it with 8.5" x 11", 11"x17" and 13"x19" and was just getting ready when a power failure took out the firmware on the T520. This apparently is not uncommon and I have a USB key with new firmware ordered. I have also tested this program on a Brother MFC-L8930CDW

	Also, I am in the process of testing some of the other Saturn software such as the Word Processing, Sorting, Drawing and other programs that I am less familiar with They may have problems, but updates will occur as we work through the collection of 23 different tasks.

	Saturn Calc was different, It would allow you to create any size (upto the 16384 max cells) but if you tried to save the spreadsheet, it refused unless you had less than 150 cells. The SATKEY trick did not fix Calc. Lee Gleason solved this one by dumping the entire task image to a .DMP file and looking for the 150 (226 octal) value, decoding instruction around it to see if there was a conditional branch associated with it, then use ZAP to make it an unconditional branch.

	So far everything looks good, ~~but there are~~ a ~~couple caveats~~ to ~~know about~~.		So far everything looks good, and I have been having fun exploring old .CAL, .GCL and .GDF files that I have not been able to look at for decades. I found some drawings of molecules, some technical slides we made before Power Point came along. One in particular had me in rolling on the floor. It was a flow chart that described a process to finding the solution to a problem. Who says scientists don't have a sense of humor?

	- First, the RSX Saturn software doesn't understand named directories so you should be in a UIC based directory when you use it.		[[File:Problem.png\|thumb\|Problem Solving Flow Chart displayed on Tek4010]]

			There are a couple caveats to know about when using Calc or Graph.

			- First, the RSX Saturn software doesn't understand named directories so you should be in a UIC (e.g. [10,3] ) based directory when you use it.
	- Second, there is an obscure bug that I have not been able to solve and don’t know if it was always there or it was somehow introduced by our hacks and zaps. It involves SUM or AVG calculations across a range when the range of cells when the input values are calculated.		- Second, there is an obscure bug that I have not been able to solve and don’t know if it was always there or it was somehow introduced by our hacks and zaps. It involves SUM or AVG calculations across a range when the range of cells when the input values are calculated.

			Saturn Graph is working very well. I can create a line, bar or pie chart either in SIG (Saturn Interactive Graphics) or from a Calc spreadsheet. Then it can be displayed on a VT125, VT240, VT330 or VT340 (Regis) terminal. The VT340 mouse even works with the Saturn drawing program. Also, as mentioned earlier Rene Richarz's TEK4010 works very well as a plotting device to quickly view plots. A standard VT100 emulator can interact with the Saturn Graph and the TEK4010 window can display the results of your changes to the plot. Then when one is ready to make a hard copy, send it to a spooled HP7550 (HPGL) plotter or even a LA50 (sixel) printer. Some Laser Printers also understand HPGL/2 and should be able to render the plots as well. At the moment, I can print them on my Brother Laser Printer but I'm going to have to intercept the VECTOR.LST file before it gets spooled and change some settings in the initialization. Most Laser printers have a RAW TCP port 9100 that can be used to directly feed the HPGL via Johnny's TCP/IP stack on RSX11M+.

 When SIG is told to draw a graph on a particular device, it spawns GRF which creates the file of Regis RGL or HPGL or PLOT10 vectors and spools the output to the device chosen. If the device is a printer, then GRF spawns RAS which converts the vectors into raster based code such as sixels that LA100, LA50 and LA75 printers use.

 SIG should fill in the scale range 1024 and 780. Then use PF3 to advance to the Store definitions. This will create a new LB:\[1,1\]GTABLE.SAT
 Now you can choose one of the many .GCL example files and choose 4 to display the graph on TK: Graphs display on the 4010 screen and are really fun to watch being drawn. SIG calls GRF to create the vector graphics, GRF pauses to allow you to view the graph and hitting a \<CR\> will erase the graph amd take you back to SIG.
