A vector graphics format for use with a program called DRAWX.

Identification

The first byte is probably "P" while the byte fifth from last is probably "X".

Description

Consists of a number of five-byte records, each consisting of the command code (a single ASCII character), followed by two small-endian 16-bit numbers (the X and Y coordinates). The commands are:

  • P: Set the current position to the specified position.
  • L: Draw a straight line segment from the previous current position to the specified position, and then set the new current position to the specified position.
  • X: End of file. X and Y coordinates are ignored.

It is unknown if any further commands are available.

The drawing area has the top-left corner at (0,0) and the bottom right corner at (1000,1000); these numbers are then scaled to fit into the drawing rectangle.
