Now let me see ...

My PowerHouse PC, version 5.11, has colours in the Qdesign HILITE statement
so the coloured output is easily accomplished. And I can imagine a bar graph
composed of character strings set to calculated lengths with DEFINE
statements so, if you'll accept bar graphs as "graphical output", I guess I
could could create "Colour graphics output" with PowerHouse. And with a
really old, no longer supported version at that!

Continuing to beat unmercifully on this thread, I would submit that Axiant
has been misnamed since its first announcement. It really should have been
called "Visual PowerHouse". Given that it would then be PowerHouse, "Colour
graphics output" would be simple.
