plstart
( | devname , |
| nx , | |
ny
); |
Alternative to plstar for initializing the plotting package. The
device name keyword for the
desired output device must be supplied as an argument. These
keywords are the same as those printed out by plstar. If the
requested device is not available, or if the input string is empty or
begins with ``?'', the prompted start up of plstar is used. This
routine also divides the output device page into
by
nx
subpages, each of which
may be used independently. The subroutine ny
pladv is used to advance
from one subpage to the next.
devname
(PLCHAR_VECTOR
An ascii character string containing the
device name keyword of the required output device. If
devname is NULL or if the first character of
the string is a ``?'', the normal (prompted) start up is used.
nx
(PLINTNumber of subpages to divide output page in the x direction.
ny
(PLINTNumber of subpages to divide output page in the y direction.
Redacted form:
General: plstart(devname, nx, ny)
