Oh, darn, I was pretty stressed out when I posted that question, and should've mentioned that it probably was an ad in Byte Magazine or Datamation, was penned with ink in a sketchy mannerism, somewhat reminiscent of the french cartoonist Jean-Marc Reiser (who died in 1983, what a waste... he created one of the funniest cartoons I've ever seen), IIRC.

Description
       These  subroutines generate graphic output in a device-independent manner.  See for a description of their effect.  The subroutine precedes
       the other subroutines as it opens the device for writing.  The subroutine flushes the output. The and routines are used by  the	lvp16  and
       hp7475a plotters only.

       String arguments to and are null-terminated and do not contain newlines.

       Many of these functions have additional options for different output devices.  They are accessed by the options as follows:

       -lplot	     device-independent graphics stream on standard output for filters

       -lplotaed     AED 512 color graphics terminal

       -lplotbg      BBN bitgraph graphics terminal

       -lplotdumb    dumb terminals without cursor addressing or line printers
