        !            82: 4014 with extended graphics module is expected.
        !            83: 
        !            84: When running \*(GQ in background or from a
        !            85: terminal that cannot display graphic output,
        !            86: it must guess which type of display list should
        !            87: be drawn, GT40-GT42 or 4014 type.
        !            88: The default has been set to

        !            94: at the head of the file must be adjusted.
        !            95: See the comment in the code for further
        !            96: information.
        !            97: 
        !            98: To use a GT40 or GT42, you must load a monitor program
        !            99: in the PDP-11.
        !           100: This monitor can be found in .../geoquel/gt42.

        !           102: in .../geoquel/gt42/gt42mon and can be used directly.
        !           103: Simply 'cat' this file to the terminal.

        !           110: 
        !           111: If you decide to provide support for
        !           112: another graphic device, you must re-write
        !           113: the routines in .../geoquel/grafpac.
        !           114: Naturally, we would be interested in hearing

        !           122: You may wish to recompile \*(GQ without the
        !           123: software floating point interpreter.
        !           124: This will not affect the operation in any way
        !           125: (since the software interpreter
        !           126: will not be used if your
        !           127: machine has floating point hardware).
        !           128: The resulting copies of the object code will be
        !           129: somewhat smaller.
        !           130: There are various shell files which contain
