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

9 plmkstrm(p_strm)
10
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.
