plstart: Initialization
Declaration
public void start(string devname, Int32 nx, Int32 ny)
Parameters
Type | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
System.String | devname | 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. |
Int32 | nx | Number of subpages to divide output page in the x direction. |
Int32 | ny | Number of subpages to divide output page in the y direction. |
Remarks
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 nx by ny subpages, each of which may be used independently. The subroutine pladv is used to advance from one subpage to the next.
