You can try Plotter's docs. For example, we had Roland plotter
and it was with the book where everything was explained.

I remember, that HPGL == IBMGL or something like that. It is very simple
language and you could use a vector drawing program like tgif
to generate HPGL code and analyse it.

In fact, I think almost any vector graphics editor could export
in HPGL.
