[Edu-sig] graphics on mac

[Winston Wolff]

I think built in, you are limited to turtle graphics.  If you can  
install something, you could use my MakeBot/MoonUnit system.  It does  
very nice graphics.  I use it to teach middle school kids and it works  
great.  ( http://stratolab.com/misc/makebot )

You could probably build something with Cocoa, but that would be some  
work.
