I have a copy of pic somewhere that does color. I'm not so happy with my syntax, but it works. Brian had a student do a pic2svg a few years ago that did a better job with the syntax. I've been meaning to clean that up and put it into the distribution (and put the better color syntax into mine too). Much of the time you can get by with inserting postscript directives to change the color behind pic's back. Polygons, filled or unfilled, have never been part of pic's repertoire. It's all a bit of a hack. Postscript sounds like it would work better for what you want anyway. Russ
