I'm impressed that you were able to find leroy! I just did about fiftee= n minutes of searching online and was unable to find it. If you wouldn'= t mind, could you share it with us? I'd enjoy playing with it.

It's on the 1981 Usenix tape, in the ucol d= irectory: https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Applicati= ons/Shoppa_Tapes/usenix_81.tar.gz

It looks lik= e leroy produces output for an "extended" form of plot; from the = docs:
