Line Graph

[Charles Seman]

Dear Matt,

I found a script "xyplot.gs" in my directory which plots (x,y) points on
an xy-graph and connects the points, and then did a search for it online
and found these sources:

http://caos.iisc.ernet.in/gslib/index.html (also has "xyplot.dat" for a
sample plot)
http://caos.iisc.ernet.in/hpg/students/xavier/lib/ (also has
"xyplot.dat" for a sample plot)

Hope this helps,
Chuck
