NAME

6       plmkstrm - Creates a new stream and makes it the default
7

SYNOPSIS

9       plmkstrm(p_strm)
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Creates  a  new  stream  and  makes it the default.  Differs from using
13       plsstrm(3plplot), in that a free stream number is found, and  returned.
14       Unfortunately,  I  have  to  start  at  stream 1 and work upward, since
15       stream 0 is preallocated.  One of the big flaws in the  PLplot  API  is
16       that no initial, library-opening call is required.  So stream 0 must be
17       preallocated, and there is no simple way of determining whether  it  is
18       already in use or not.
