-
- * Imakefile: Richard Roy <dick@isl.stanford.edu>
- adds alabel.o to OBJ and alable.c to SRC.
-
- Mon Mar 11 11:05:05 1991 Richard Murphey (rich at kappa)
-
- * xplot.c: use getopt. added +catch-sighup and
- +dont-fork options. This required moving the `signal()'
- to follow the option parsing. Are there cases where
- the signal needs to be ignored sooner? Version 0.4
-
- Sun Mar 3 15:09:49 1991 Richard Murphey (rich at kappa)
-
- * alabel.c: load the default font if a named font does not
- exist in the server. This is version 0.3
-
- Sat Nov 10 10:44:59 1990 Richard Murphey (rich at kappa)
-
- * xplot.c: added program name to error message.
-
- Wed Oct 17 22:02:32 1990 Richard Murphey (rich at tahomah)
-
- * xplot.c: fixed font resource bug in fallback_resources.
- Thanks to David W. Forslund <dwf%hope.ACL@lanl.gov> for catching it!
- * xplot.c, Makefile: added -v option which reports the version
- number. This is version 0.2.

-
- * rewrote the X initialization code in openpl again in order to
- avoid the bug in the Sun4 SunOS 4.1 kernel. This time we
- are reading the whole plot file into a buffer befor opening
- any windows. That seems to help. It still needs to handle
- resize events.

-
- * added file alabel.c containing plot functions for extended plot file
- format.
-
- * changed label so that it calls alabel.
-
- * added extensions to the main loop which reads in the plot file.
-
- * added the `-debug' option. The output is similar to the output
- of plottoa. So, except for the extensions we should be able to
- filter the output with /usr/bin/atoplot and then other plot filters
- to make debugging easier.

-
- * rewrote much of the X initialization code in openpl in order to
- avoid what seems to be a bug in the Sun4 SunOS 4.1 kernel. If xplot
- crashes the OS with `bad trap' and `data fault' messages, you have been
- bit by this bug.
-
- * changed from a label widget to a command widget. This makes naturally makes
- the left button `QUIT' -- exit and close the window.
-
- * keep all of the input read from stdin in a buffer. Later on we can
- add a resize method which redraws the window using this data.
-
- * Use XClearWindow after reaching the end each pipe full of data and after
- the pipe is closed to force the display to expose all newly drawn lines and
- text in the pixmap.
-
- * fork() after the end of file is reached, so that the parent process
- can continue while the window stays on the screen.
