NOTE: THIS FILE FORMAT IS OBSOLETE.  THIS DOCUMENT IS ONLY PROVIDED
	FOR BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY AND INFORMATION.

The following is the format of fig output for Protocol version 2.0:

(1) The very first line is a comment line containing the name and version:
	#FIG 2.0

    The character # at the first column of a line indicates that the line
    is a comment line which will be ignored.

(2) The first non-comment line consists of two numbers :

	int	fig_resolution		(pixels/inch)
	int	coordinate_system	(1 : origin is at the lower left corner
					 2 : Upper left)

    Fig_resolution is the resolution fig is using for the current file.
    It may not be the same as screen resolution (which can be higher or
    lower).  I assume that a pixel is square, therefore this number
    represents drawing resolution in both direction.  I've experimented
    with fig automatically changing this number according to the resolution
    of the monitor it is running on (The screen resolution, width and height
    in pixels, not pixel/inch, can be done by doing a ioctl on the /dev/fb).
    I've found that for monitors with higher resolution but same size
    (19" diagonal), I preferred using the pixels for other things than
    having fig occupying most of the screen.  Thus I opted for a fixed
    pixel-per-inch number which make fig window smaller on higher resolution
    monitor (than the standard sun monitor).  This however may change in
    the future version.

(3) The rest of the file contains various objects.  An object can be one
    of six classes (or types).

	  i)	Ellipse which is a generalization of circle.
	 ii)	Polyline which includes polygon and box.
	iii)	Spline which includes closed/open control/interpolated spline.
	 iv)	Text.
	  v)	Arc.
	 vi)	Compound object which is composed of one or more objects.

    In the following elaboration on object formats, every value of fig
    output are separated by blank characters or new line ('\n').  The
    value of the not-used parameters will be -1.

    A number of values are described as unused or not applicable to some
    object even though they are defined for those objects.  These value
    will (hopefully) be used in the future version of fig.  The intention
    of their uses are the following.

	Value			Usage
	-----			-----
	area_fill	The gray color for filling object internals.
			Non-TFX:(gray color; 0=no fill,1=white,21=black)
			TFX:	(gray color; 0=no fill,1=black, 5=white)

	pen		This will be a structure defining the shape of
			pen used in drawing objects.  It also includes
			the the stipple pattern for line filling.
			The default pen is a circular pen with black
			filling.

	thickness	Every pen has the thickness of one.
			Thickness scales the size of a pen. 

	depth		This value adds a half dimension to fig.
			It is useful when we have overlapping filled
			objects and we want one to obliterate another.
			An object can have only one depth (including
			compound object).  An object that is in less
			depth can obscure the one with greater depth
			if they overlap.
	
	style		Three line styles are defined.

				0 : SOLID_LINE
				1 : DASH_LINE
				2 : DOTTED_LINE

	style_val	For dash style, it is the length of a dash.
			For dotted line it indicates the approximated
			gap of consecutive dots. 
	
	radius		For rounded-corner boxes, this is the radius of
			the corners.
