PLSPAGE(3plplot)						    PLplot API							  PLSPAGE(3plplot)

NAME

       plspage - Set page parameters

SYNOPSIS

       plspage(xp, yp, xleng, yleng, xoff, yoff)

DESCRIPTION

       Sets  the  page configuration (optional).  If an individual parameter is zero then that parameter value is not updated.	Not all parameters
       are recognized by all drivers and the interpretation is device-dependent. The X-window driver uses the  length  and  offset  parameters	to
       determine  the  window size and location.  The length and offset values are expressed in units that are specific to the current driver. For
       instance: screen drivers will usually interpret them as number of pixels, whereas printer drivers will usually use  mm.	This  routine,	if
       used, must be called before initializing PLplot.

       Redacted form: plspage(xp, yp, xleng, yleng, xoff, yoff)

       This function is used in examples 14 and 31.

ARGUMENTS

       xp (PLFLT, input)
	      Number of pixels/inch (DPI), x.

       yp (PLFLT, input)
	      Number of pixels/inch (DPI), y.

       xleng (PLINT , input)
	      Page length, x.

       yleng (PLINT, input)
	      Page length, y.

       xoff (PLINT, input)
	      Page offset, x.

       yoff (PLINT, input)
	      Page offset, y.

NAME

       plstar - Initialization

SYNOPSIS

       plstar(nx, ny)

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.  If only one device is enabled when PLplot is installed,  plstar(3plplot)
       will  issue  no	prompt.   The  output  device  is divided into nx by ny subpages, each of which may be used independently.  The subroutine
       pladv(3plplot) is used to advance from one subpage to the next.

       Redacted form: plstar(nx, ny)

       This function is used in example 1.

ARGUMENTS

       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.
