Abstract: UWCIG is an expansion of CHCIG8 (FOCAL8-292) modified
into an overlay to 8K U/W-FOCAL ver. 3M (FOCAL8-301).

It provides interactive graphics, clock, Digital-I/O, etc. Functions for a
12K PDP8/E (LAB8/E), with VC8/E + VR14 non-storage scope, DR8-
EA Digital I/O, DK8-EP Clock, TD8E DECtape, etc. Facilities exist for
using a Tektronix-613 storage scope. Buffers can be quickly transferred to
and from DECtape and permit the storing of 507 floating-point numbers
or of 1560 integers. All of the U/W-FOCAL facilities are retained.

UWCIG should be useful in on-line work involving the presentation of
dynamic displays (curves, graphs, dot-patterns) or sequences of text.
