Re: [Plplot-general] yPlot archive corrupted

[Alan W. I. <ir...@be...>]

Thanks, Jason, for pointing that out.  As I recall Conrad uploaded those
files during the sourceforge hardware reorganization.  Once I can make
contact with him, we can hopefully get the problem sorted out.

Meanwhile, use the cvs version of yplot.

I am currently working on incorporating a true portrait mode into the PLplot
core. We currently have control of the aspect ratio and orientation in
PLplot, but an aspect ratio change also affects the aspect ratio of characters
and symbols which should be invarient to such changes.

Once this work is completed, the plan for the next stable release of yplot
is to retire the yplot portrait-mode drivers (which do not work correctly
for shade plots) and use the PLplot core functionality instead.
