"""Improved replacement for the Gnuplot.Gnuplot class.
This module imports Gnuplot and replaces some of its functionality with
improved versions. They add better handling of arrays for plotting and more
convenient PostScript generation, plus some fixes for hardcopy().
It also adds a convenient plot2 method for plotting dictionaries and
lists/tuples of arrays.
This module is meant to be used as a drop-in replacement to the original
Gnuplot, so it should be safe to do:

flexible way to call plot because the PlotItems can
contain suboptions. Moreover, PlotItems can be saved to
variables so that their lifetime is longer than one plot
command; thus they can be replotted with minimal overhead.

'Func(string)' (a function that is computed by gnuplot).
Anything else -- The object, which should be convertible to an
array, is passed to the 'Data' constructor, and thus
plotted as data. If the conversion fails, an exception is
raised.
This is a modified version of plot(). Compared to the original in
Gnuplot.py, this version has several enhancements, listed below.
Modifications to the input arguments
------------------------------------
(1-d array means Numeric array, list or tuple):
(i) Any 1-d array which is NOT followed by another 1-d array, is
automatically zipped with range(len(array_1d)). Typing g.plot(y) will
plot y against its indices.
(ii) If two 1-d arrays are contiguous in the argument list, they are
automatically zipped together. So g.plot(x,y) plots y vs. x, and
g.plot(x1,y1,x2,y2) plots y1 vs. x1 and y2 vs. x2.
(iii) Any 1-d array which is followed by None is automatically zipped
with range(len(array_1d)). In this form, typing g.plot(y1,None,y2)
will plot both y1 and y2 against their respective indices (and NOT
versus one another). The None prevents zipping y1 and y2 together, and
since y2 is unpaired it is automatically zipped to its indices by (i)
(iv) Any other arguments which don't match these cases are left alone and
passed to the code below.
For lists or tuples, the heuristics used to determine whether they are
in fact 1-d is fairly simplistic: their first element is checked, and
if it is not a list or tuple itself, it is assumed that the whole
object is one-dimensional.
An additional optional keyword 'titles' has been added: it must be a
list of strings to be used as labels for the individual plots which
are NOT PlotItem objects (since those objects carry their own labels
within).
PostScript generation
---------------------
This version of plot() also handles automatically the production of
PostScript output. The main options are (given as keyword arguments):
- filename: a string, typically ending in .eps. If given, the plot is
sent to this file in PostScript format.
- hardcopy: this can be set to 0 to override 'filename'. It does not
need to be given to produce PostScript, its purpose is to allow
switching PostScript output off globally in scripts without having to
manually change 'filename' values in multiple calls.
All other keywords accepted by Gnuplot.hardcopy() are transparently
passed, and safely ignored if output is sent to the screen instead of
PostScript.
For example:
In [1]: x=frange(0,2*pi,npts=100)
Generate a plot in file 'sin.eps':
In [2]: plot(x,sin(x),filename = 'sin.eps')
Plot to screen instead, without having to change the filename:
In [3]: plot(x,sin(x),filename = 'sin.eps',hardcopy=0)
Pass the 'color=0' option to hardcopy for monochrome output:
In [4]: plot(x,sin(x),filename = 'sin.eps',color=0)
PostScript generation through plot() is useful mainly for scripting
uses where you are not interested in interactive plotting. For
interactive use, the hardcopy() function is typically more convenient:
In [5]: plot(x,sin(x))
In [6]: hardcopy('sin.eps') """

for one hardcopy then the next hardcopy will also be color

print a single plot at a time.
