Cip, for those who never heard of it, was an inverse of pic: create a picture by mouse clicks and get pic code back. It was written by Sally Browning at Bell Labs and was included in the 10th edition research UNIX system. I am not aware that it ever got distributed outside Bell Labs research. I don't know whether the resulting pic code was intelligible enough to be easily modified, or was impenetrable like HTML that comes from Microsoft Word. But you could ask her.
