Normally, after pen-plotter drawing commands are executed, C-PLOT commands the plotter to replace the pen in its home (often capped) position. If you are drawing a single plot with multiple commands, you can save time by having the pen remain over the plot.

The pw command is comparable to the leave filter open command, zw, described in Chapter 8.
