Hi Al,

Indeed you can, have a look at the Transcript
Dictionary entries for the 'choose' command.
Example for creating a line : 
  reset the templateGraphic
  set the style of the templateGraphic to "line"
  choose graphic tool

The one downside is that these tools know no
boundaries : the user can draw through other items and
even off-screen. But if you can live with that
limitation, knock yourself out :-)

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.
