highlights of modifications for C-PLOT release 4.0.15

DESCRIPTION

These release notes describe the changes or new features made for C-PLOT release 4.0.15 as of July 25, 1995.

Artificial Limit On Filled Arbitrary Shapes Removed

Previously, the C-PLOT line-control feature that allows the shape defined by the current data to be filled with the current white -fill color would fail if the number of points that defined the shape was greater than 1,024 due to a limited array size in the various graphics filters. The limits have been removed.

Line Control Parsing Fixed In shell.4

The shell.4 standard user function has finally been updated to recognize line-control values other than 1. For example,:

lc 1
fn shell.4 awk '{if (NR==1) $(NF)=2; print $0}'

will set the line control information for the first point of the current data to 2.
