In this summer release of MIDAS a great step towards hardware independence has been achieved: First, the AGL library from ASTRONET is now used by all graphics applications in MIDAS. The metafile oriented AGL package already supports a lot of different graphic devices and backend drivers for other devices may be added easily. Second, all image display applications of MIDAS are now based upon a proto-type of the 101' interfaces. An actual implementation of the 101 interfaces has been done at ESO for the OeAnza IP 8500 and also at Trieste for an EIDOBRAIN 7001. The concept of these 101 routines was successfully tested in Trieste. We implemented MIDAS on the EIOOBRAIN machine by simply replacing the OeAnza IDI interfaces with the IDI interfaces of the Trieste group!
