function fmt = plot_opt (caller, opt)

# usage: fmt = plot_opt (caller, opt)
#
# Decode plot option strings.
#
# If OPT is a valid option string, return a string of the form "w l 2"
# ("with lines 2").  Uses abbreviations for the options to avoid
# overrunning gnuplot's command line buffer unnecessarily.
#
# OPT can currently be some combination of the following:
#
#   "-"   for lines plot style (default).
#   "."   for dots plot style.
#   "@"   for points plot style.
#   "-@"  for linespoints plot style.
#   "^"   for impulses plot style.
#   "L"   for steps plot style.
#   "#"   for boxes plot style.
#   "~"   for errorbars plot style.
#   "#~"  for boxerrorbars plot style.
#   "n"   with n in 1-6 (wraps at 8), plot color
#   "nm"  with m in 1-6 (wraps at 6), point style (only valid with "@" or "-@")
#   "c"   where c is one of ["r", "g", "b", "m", "c", "w"] colors.
#
#   Special points formats:
#
#      "+", "*", "o", "x" will display points in that style.
#
#   The legend may be fixed to include the name of the variable
#   plotted in some future version of Octave.
#
#   The color line styles have the following meanings on terminals
#   that support color.
#
#     Number  Gnuplot colors     (lines)points style
#       1       red                 "*"
#       2       green               "+"
#       3       blue                "o"
#       4       magenta             "x"
#       5       cyan                house
#       6       brown               there exists
