plstart
( | device, |
nx, | |
ny) ; |
Alternative to plstar
for initializing the plotting package. The
name keyword for the
desired output device must be supplied as an argument. The device
keywords are the same as those printed out by device
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 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.
device
(const char *
, input)
Device name (keyword) of the required output device. If NULL or if the first character is a ``?'', the normal (prompted) start up is used.
nx
(PLINT
, input)
Number of subpages to divide output page in the horizontal direction.
ny
(PLINT
, input)
Number of subpages to divide output page in the vertical direction.
Redacted form:
General: plstart(device, nx, ny)
Perl/PDL: plstart(nx, ny, device)
