PLTEXT(3plplot) 						    PLplot API							   PLTEXT(3plplot)

NAME
pltext - Switch to text screen SYNOPSIS
pltext() DESCRIPTION
Sets an interactive device to text mode, used in conjunction with plgra(3plplot) to allow graphics and text to be interspersed. On a device which supports separate text and graphics windows, this command causes control to be switched to the text window. This can be use- ful for printing diagnostic messages or getting user input, which would otherwise interfere with the plots. The program must switch back to the graphics window before issuing plot commands, as the text (or console) device will probably become quite confused otherwise. If already in text mode, this command is ignored. It is also ignored on devices which only support a single window or use a different method for shifting focus (see also plgra(3plplot)). Redacted form: pltext() This function is used in example 1. AUTHORS

PLINIT(3plplot) 						    PLplot API							   PLINIT(3plplot)

NAME
plinit - Initialize PLplot SYNOPSIS
plinit() DESCRIPTION
Initializing the plotting package. The program prompts for the device keyword or number of the desired output device. Hitting a RETURN in response to the prompt is the same as selecting the first device. plinit(3plplot) will issue no prompt if either the device was specified previously (via command line flag, the plsetopt(3plplot) function, or the plsdev(3plplot) function), or if only one device is enabled when PLplot is installed. If subpages have been specified, the output device is divided into nx by ny subpages, each of which may be used inde- pendently. If plinit(3plplot) is called again during a program, the previously opened file will be closed. The subroutine pladv(3plplot) is used to advance from one subpage to the next. Redacted form: plinit() This function is used in all of the examples. AUTHORS
