[Plplot-devel] a small patch to PLplot

[Doug H. <dh...@uc...>]

Hi Rafael:  I was wondering if you could do me a favor.  I have a small 
patch
to PLplot 5.2.0 which should not cause any problems.  I don't have 
developer CVS access
and in any case I don't have all the GNU autoconf tools up to the right 
version to get the CVS
source to build.

The patch is attached, along with the complete new version of plsym.c. 
 This patch affects the plmtex() function.  Currently one can plot left 
and right of the axis, with text parallel or perpendicular to the axis by
specifying 'side' = ('l', 'r', 'lv' or 'bv').  One cannot, however, plot 
with text perpendicular to
the axis on the top or bottom.  My patch adds the 'tv' and 'bv' 
specifiers.  I have tested this
under linux and it seems to work.

Could you apply this patch to the current CVS?

Thanks much!
