Description of the program: make_ps


This program takes a scalar or a three component time series and creates a postscript file with a three dimensional plot, where the third component is encoded in colors. (Beta version)

Usage:

make_ps [Options]

Everything not being a valid option will be interpreted as a potential datafile name. Given no datafile at all, means read stdin. Also - means stdin

Possible options are:

Option Description Default
-l# number of points to use whole file
-x# number of lines to be ignored 0
-c# column to read or datafile,# (only if -3 is not set) 1
-d# delay 1
-C# number of colors to use 32
-s# size of the plot in cm 16
-w# width of lines (size of points) in dots 1
-t# textwidth 15
-p plot with points instead of lines lines
-a make xy tics no tics
-3 read 3 columns. Do not use delay coordinates delay coordinates
-F# read the specified columns in the specified order
(separated by commas, must not contain spaces)
only in connection with -3
1,2,3
-o# name of output file 'datafile'.ps
(or stdin.ps if data were read from stdin)
-h show these options none


Description of the Output:

The output is a postscript file, which shows a 3D representation of the data, where the third direction is color coded.
