Hi Xavier:

It is interesting you brought up this topic since I have recently
encountered it myself.  Some of my older research plots used the
"yplot" wrapper for PLplot which dealt with this issue by defining the
"plstick" functionality, but yplot is moribund so when recently
attempting to replicate those old research plots I copied the
essentials of plstick to Python so I could use plstick from that
language.  I attach a figure showing the type of results you can get
with this Python version of plstick, and if you like those I suggest
you port the Python version of plstick (which I have also attached) to
whatever language you like to use to generate your plots.
