6.4.1. - Plotting symbols





To use a numeral or one of the upper-case letters used as a code in the table above as the plotting symbol, precede it with a backslash, \. If the characters c or z are used as symbols, they must also be preceded with a \ because of their special meaning to the key (see gk, below). To use any other character as a plotting symbol, enter it as an argument to sy or when prompted. n-3i

Symbols, except for lines, may be inserted within text by using the four-character sequence \[##, ## is 00 for symbol 0 (a circle), 10 for symbol 10, etc.

Lines may be inserted into text using the three-character sequence \*X, where substituting A for X selects line-pattern A (dotted), B selects line pattern B (short dashed), etc.

The pattern length of dashed and dotted lines can be adjusted using the set parameter command described below.
