Figure is a great program. It's so old that surely they could open source
it.

That has been discussed a lot these days. Since they have abandonned the idea of making cash from it, why could they not make the very useful SeqLab or even all their software OpenSource ? But anyway, there is the GCGfigure program that runs on old MacOS and has always been freeware.
