Seems like the author isn't aware of his genius? ;-) Although I
still haven't XWINDOW embedded in all my programs (I know, I should),
it seems to me that you can specify any routine to be executed
upon a "redraw" event, i.e. also when you create a postscript
file. So, if you write a simple procedure like
pro extplot,x,y,_EXTRA=e
; do the plot
plot,x,y,_EXTRA=e
; do something else
xyouts,0.5,0.98,'Grand title',/NORM,align=0.5
return
end
Then you pass 'extplot' instead of 'plot' to xwindow, and you should
be able to create a postscript file as you like.
Hope this helps,
Martin
