Xfig at a glance

Xfig

Xfig began in 1985 and accumulated decades of maintenance and export tooling, which made the .fig format a durable bridge between interactive diagram editing on Unix systems and downstream conversion to PostScript, PDF, and other outputs.

RealMedia at a glance

RealMedia

RM comes from the same proprietary streaming-media period as RealAudio and RealVideo, when end-to-end delivery systems often revolved around a branded container, player, and server stack.
