There is an "INCLUD" command which will insert an ASCII file into
a pulse program at that point. Something like the following should work:

D1 [F1 PLS1^]
...
BEGIN LISTS
PLS1, INCLUD MYFILE.PLS
END LISTS

You can then use any editor or utility program to put the X's and Y's
into MYFILE.PLS and transfer it, via Bruknet or Kermit to the A-3000.
Unfortunately direct access to files on another system (a la NFS)
is not supported by Bruknet so the files must be transfered to the
disk on the A-3000.

One more note: This syntax didn't work properly in the older versions
of DISMSL and PCCOM. To be sure it is working you should have version
911101.1 of both.
