PLSTART(3plplot)						    PLplot API							  PLSTART(3plplot)

NAME

       plstart - Initialization

SYNOPSIS

       plstart(device, nx, ny)

DESCRIPTION

       Alternative  to	plstar(3plplot) for initializing the plotting package.	The device name keyword for the desired output device must be sup-
       plied as an argument.  The device keywords are the same as those printed out by plstar(3plplot).  If the requested device is not available,
       or  if the input string is empty or begins with ``?'', the prompted startup of plstar(3plplot) is used.	This routine also divides the out-
       put device into nx by ny subpages, each of which may be used independently.  The subroutine pladv(3plplot) is used to advance from one sub-
       page to the next.

       Redacted form:  General: plstart(device, nx, ny) Perl/PDL: plstart(nx, ny, device)

       This function is not used in any examples.

ARGUMENTS

       device (const char *, input)
	      Device name (keyword) of the required output device.  If NULL or if the first character is a ``?'', the normal (prompted) startup 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.
