Hello,

I have to prepair some figures for a paper where they accept graphs
only with tick marks and not grid lines. Is there a way to
tell PLOT to draw a continuous line with tick marks?
PSYM is not what I want I would like to have something like


--*
\ _
\ /
*---*

Thanks!
Best regards,
Roberto

Just use PLOT with PSYM but set the PSYM value to a negative value.
Then you get the line with the symbol at the data point.

e.g. PLOT, x, y, PSYM=-4

will give you the line with diamonds (?) symbols at the data points.

cheers,
