PostScript Plotting of SU Data

Just as there are X-Windows codes for plotting SU data, there are also codes for making PostScript plots of these data. The programs for PostScript graphics are

• SUPSCONTOUR - PostScript CONTOUR plot of an SU data set
• SUPSIMAGE - PostScript IMAGE plot of an SU data set
• SUPSCUBE - PostScript CUBE plot of an SU data set
• SUPSGRAPH - PostScript GRAPH plot of an SU data set
• SUPSWIGB - PostScript Bit-mapped WIGgle plot of an SU data set
• SUPSWIGP - PostScript Polygon-filled WIGgle plot of an SU data set
• SUPSMAX - PostScript of the MAX, min, or absolute max value on each trace of a SU data set

We can use suplane data to test each of these programs as we did with the X-Windows codes

% suplane > junk.su

% supscontour < junk.su title="contour" > data1.eps
% supsimage < junk.su title="image" label1="sec" label2="trace number"  > data2.eps
% supscube < junk.su  title="cube plot"  > data4.eps
% supswigb < junk.su title="bitmap wiggle trace"  > data3.eps
% supswigp < junk.su title="wiggle trace"  > data4.eps
% supsmovie  < junk.su title="movie"  > data5.eps
% supsmax < junk.su title="max"  > data5.eps

The output files contain Adobe Level 2 Encapsulated PostScript, and is compatible with TeX, LaTeX, and many draw tools. You will need to use a PostScript previewer, such as GhostScript or Ghostview to view these files on the screen.

Please note again, that programs for which there is a non-SU version, have selfdoc information which applies to these codes, as well.
