From help-octave-request at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Thu Jan 16 10:45:56 2003 Subject: octave plots and psfrag From: "Iago Mosqueira" To: "octave-help" Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2003 06:16:41 -0600 Hello, I am trying to mimic the laprint.m script wrote by Arno Linnemann, which substitutes each text string in a plot by a sequentially numbered one, and creates a psfrag file with the appropriate substitution. I am thinking about three ways of accomplishing this: (1) a sed or awk script that looks for strings, for example '140.0 0.0 true true ( 0.1)' is a typical axis label in my system (2) retrieving in octave all string, through a gnuplot command, and creating the file there. IS that possible? (3) same as (1) but in C, so it can be made into an octave function. I have started with (1), but cannot get sed to change one string at a time. Has anybody any suggestions on how best to accomplish this? Cheers, iago ------------------------------------------------------------- Octave is freely available under the terms of the GNU GPL.
