At the moment to keep track of my plots I include a tiny line of text
that says what procedure/function made the plot and when, and the
original filename. It's very useful for working out what produced a plot
in a paper when I need to change it, which unfortunately seems quite
often these days...
Anyway, what I would really like to do is put this text in the PS file
title rather than actually include it in the figure. Less zooming in etc...
I do this after creation of the postscript file manually by editing the
%%Title: field of the .ps file from
%%Title: Graphics produced by IDL
to something like
%%Title: Created by MAKE_TEST_PLOT_27, 11/1/06, orginal name: fred.ps
but my current method is rather neater and just gets called somewhere in
the postscript block.
Any ideas?
I'm hoping there is something like a /title keyword in the device call,
but I haven't found anything yet. I experimented with
device, output=
but nothing of note appeared...
Thanks,
Ben
