include_en.gle

Subroutines and definitions to draw figures in "arbitrary" units

Definitions of colors distinguishable by color blinds

Subroutines for positioning labels left/right/centered to a given point

USAGE

=====

  1. Start the first line of your gle file with

    include "include_en.gle"

  2. Modify the value of the variable finalsize (see line 31)

    according to your needs; this variable gives the size of

    your figure after inclusion into your text document

  3. Replace dimensions (and colors) in your main gle file; f.e.

    set hei tinyhei

    set lwidth lnwidth

    set color blue$

    xtitle "ABC" hei charhei

    xaxis hei charhei

    xside lwidth lnwidth

    xticks lwidth lnwidth length ldwidth

    d1 line lwidth lswidth color red$

  4. Enjoy ``correct'' line widths and font sizes in your figure

    after inclusion into your text document

Default paper format: DIN A4 landscape


but final figure should have a width of cm

 ************               *****
