NAME

6       plptex - Write text inside the viewport
7

SYNOPSIS

9       plptex(x, y, dx, dy, just, text)
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Writes  text  at  a specified position and inclination within the view‐
13       port.  Text is clipped at the viewport boundaries.  The reference point
14       of  a  string  lies along a line passing through the string at half the
15       height of a capital letter.  The position of the reference point  along
16       this line is determined by just, the reference point is placed at world
17       coordinates (x, y) within the viewport.  The inclination of the  string
18       is  specified  in  terms  of differences of world coordinates making it
19       easy to write text parallel to a line in a graph.

ARGUMENTS

26       x (PLFLT, input)
27              x coordinate of reference point of string.
28
29       y (PLFLT, input)
30              y coordinate of reference point of string.
31
32       dx (PLFLT, input)
33              Together with dy, this specifies the inclination of the  string.
34              The  baseline of the string is parallel to a line joining (x, y)
35              to (x+dx, y+dy).
36
37       dy (PLFLT, input)
38              Together with dx, this specifies the inclination of the string.
39
40       just (PLFLT, input)
41              Specifies the position of the string relative to  its  reference
42              point.   If  just=0.,  the reference point is at the left and if
43              just=1., it is at the right of the string.  Other values of just
44              give intermediate justifications.
45
46       text (const char *, input)
47              The string to be written out.
