- G.) New PLOTCALL commands:
-
- Command: Move Absolute
-
- Format: MA X,Y
-
- where
-
- MA is the command name to raise the pen at it's current
- position and move to (X,Y).
-
- X,Y are the coordinates to move the pen to in inches.
- -------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Command: Plot Absolute
-
- Format: PA X,Y
-
- where
-
- PA is the command to lower the pen at it's current position
- and move to (X,Y).
-
- X,Y are the coordinates to move the pen to in inches.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Command: TRanslate
-
- Format: TR DX,DY
-
- where
-
- TR is the command to translate the plot.
-
- DX,DY are the delta distances to move all subsequent coordinates.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Command: SCale
-
- Format: SC XSC,YSC
-
- where
-
- SC is the command to scale the plot.
-
- XSC is the scaling factor in the X direction.
-
- YSC is the scaling factor in the Y direction.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Command: Plot String
-
- Format: PS X,Y,HT,AN,STR
-
- where
-
- X,Y are the coordinates of the lower left corner of the
- first character to be plotted. If a centered symbol
- is plotted, then X,Y refers to the center of the
- symbol.
-
- HT is the height of the characters in inches.
-
- AN is the angle in degrees to plot the string.
-
- STR is the character string enclosed in double quotes.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------

- instructions about the current pivot point.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Command: PIvot
-
- Format: PI XPIV,YPIV
